Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap
Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads GPR31 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GPR31 could matter depends on whether native GPR31 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
GPR31 is annotated at the cell surface, where native GPR31 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 GPR31 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
