OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is thought to encode a GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase. This enzyme catalyzes the reaction which converts mannose-1-phosphate and GTP to GDP-mannose which is involved in the production of N-linked oligosaccharides. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

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

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