OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the growth arrest-specific 2 protein family. This protein binds components of the cytoskeleton and may be involved in mediating interactions between microtubules and microfilaments. This protein localizes to the proximal end of mature centrioles and links centrosomes to both microtubules and actin. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 9. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads GAS2L1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GAS2L1 could matter depends on whether native GAS2L1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GAS2L1 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 GAS2L1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
