OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of a family of transcription factors that play a crucial role in the control of the cell cycle. The protein encoded by this gene lacks the transactivation and tumor suppressor protein association domains found in other family members, and contains a modular suppression domain that functions in the inhibition of transcription. It interacts in a complex with chromatin modifying factors. There are pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 22 and X. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against E2F6 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 E2F6 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against E2F6 could matter depends on whether native E2F6 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

E2F6 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 E2F6 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
