OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a potential mitochondrial protein that is a member of the DJ-1/PfpI gene family. This protein is overexpressed in fetal Down syndrome brain. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads GATD3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GATD3 could matter depends on whether native GATD3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GATD3 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 GATD3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
