OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the hydratase/isomerase superfamily. The protein encoded is a key mitochondrial enzyme involved in beta-oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids. It catalyzes the transformation of 3-cis and 3-trans-enoyl-CoA esters arising during the stepwise degradation of cis-, mono-, and polyunsaturated fatty acids to the 2-trans-enoyl-CoA intermediates. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads ECI2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ECI2 could matter depends on whether native ECI2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ECI2 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 ECI2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
