OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel family of zinc finger proteins. The encoded transcription factor is activated by the sonic hedgehog signal transduction cascade and regulates stem cell proliferation. The activity and nuclear localization of this protein is negatively regulated by p53 in an inhibitory loop. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads GLI1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GLI1 could matter depends on whether native GLI1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
GLI1 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 GLI1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
