OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a translation elongation factor. The protein is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor involved in the transfer of aminoacylated tRNAs to the ribosome. Alternative splicing results in three transcript variants which differ only in the 5' UTR. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against EEF1B2 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 EEF1B2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against EEF1B2 could matter depends on whether native EEF1B2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

EEF1B2 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 EEF1B2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
