OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the WD repeat protein family. WD repeats are minimally conserved regions of approximately 40 amino acids typically bracketed by gly-his and trp-asp (GH-WD) and may facilitate the formation of heterotrimeric or multiprotein complexes. Members of this family are involved in a variety of cellular processes including cell cycle progression, signal transduction, apoptosis, and gene regulation. The encoded protein contains four WD repeats and may play a role in the formation of cilia. Mutations in this gene have been associated with short-rib polydactyly and Jeune syndromes.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against DYNC2I1 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads DYNC2I1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DYNC2I1 could matter depends on whether native DYNC2I1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DYNC2I1 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label DYNC2I1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
