OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the methyltransferase superfamily. The encoded protein localizes to the nucleolus, binds to S-adenosylmethionine, and may be involved in the processing and modification of ribosomal RNA. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads FTSJ1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FTSJ1 could matter depends on whether native FTSJ1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
FTSJ1 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 FTSJ1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
