OverviewNCBI Gene

The gene encodes a Rab7 adapter protein that is implicated in the microtubule transport of autophagosomes. The encoded protein contains a RUN domain, a FYVE-type zinc finger domain, and Golgi dynamics (GOLD) domain. The encoded protein plays a role in microtubule plus end-directed transport of autophagic vesicles through interactions with the small GTPase Rab7, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P), the autophagosome marker LC3, and the kinesin KIF5. Mutations in this gene are associated with inclusion body myositis (IBM) and autosomal recessive congenital cataracts (CATC2). [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against FYCO1 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 FYCO1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FYCO1 could matter depends on whether native FYCO1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

FYCO1 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 FYCO1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
