OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase that localizes to the mitochondrion. The encoded protein binds to the 3' terminal stem loop of 12S mitochondrial rRNA and is required for proper assembly of the 28S small mitochondrial ribosomal subunit. Deletion of this gene has been shown to cause mitochondrial dysfunction, growth retardation, and apoptosis. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Whether an antibody against ERAL1 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 ERAL1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ERAL1 could matter depends on whether native ERAL1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ERAL1 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 ERAL1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
