OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein that binds to the tumor suppressor folliculin and to AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and may play a role cellular metabolism and nutrient sensing by regulating the AMPK-mechanistic target of rapamycin signaling pathway. The encoded protein may also be involved in regulating the O6-methylguanine-induced apoptosis signaling pathway. This gene has a closely related paralog that encodes a protein with similar binding activities. Both related proteins also associate with the molecular chaperone heat shock protein-90 (Hsp90) and negatively regulate its ATPase activity and facilitate its association with folliculin.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads FNIP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FNIP2 could matter depends on whether native FNIP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

FNIP2 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 FNIP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
