OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the rhodopsin subfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors that is expressed in the pancreas and gastrointestinal tract. The encoded protein is activated by lipid amides including lysophosphatidylcholine and oleoylethanolamide and may be involved in glucose homeostasis. This protein is a potential drug target in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads GPR119 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GPR119 could matter depends on whether native GPR119 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
GPR119 is annotated at the cell surface, where native GPR119 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 GPR119 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
