OverviewNCBI Gene
Predicted to enable actin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle; negative regulation of focal adhesion assembly; and regulation of cytoskeleton organization. Located in several cellular components, including focal adhesion; ruffle membrane; and stress fiber. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Whether an antibody against FAM107A 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 FAM107A as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FAM107A could matter depends on whether native FAM107A is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
FAM107A is annotated at the cell surface, where native FAM107A is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label FAM107A as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
