OverviewNCBI Gene

GLIS1 is a GLI (MIM 165220)-related Kruppel-like zinc finger protein that functions as an activator and repressor of transcription (Kim et al., 2002 [PubMed 12042312]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against GLIS1 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 GLIS1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GLIS1 could matter depends on whether native GLIS1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GLIS1 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 GLIS1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
