OverviewNCBI Gene

Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins), which integrate signals between receptors and effector proteins, are composed of an alpha, a beta, and a gamma subunit. These subunits are encoded by families of related genes. This gene encodes a beta subunit. Beta subunits are important regulators of alpha subunits, as well as of certain signal transduction receptors and effectors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms exist. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against GNB5 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 GNB5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GNB5 could matter depends on whether native GNB5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GNB5 is annotated at the cell surface, where native GNB5 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label GNB5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
