OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is characterized by an N-terminal microfibril interface domain, a coiled-coiled alpha-helical domain, a collagenous domain and a C-terminal globular C1q domain. The encoded protein associates with elastic fibers at the interface between elastin and microfibrils and may play a role in the development of elastic tissues including large blood vessels, dermis, heart and lung.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against EMILIN1 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 EMILIN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against EMILIN1 could matter depends on whether native EMILIN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

EMILIN1 is annotated as secreted, so native EMILIN1 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label EMILIN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
