Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads GPR37L1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GPR37L1 could matter depends on whether native GPR37L1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GPR37L1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native GPR37L1 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 GPR37L1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.

Canonical record: https://seroatlas.com/gene/GPR37L1. Study-independent annotations aggregated from UniProt, Human Protein Atlas, PubMed, IEDB, Pfam, InterPro, Gene Ontology, AlphaFold, gnomAD, DepMap, ClinVar, TCGA. Catalog release seroatlas-reviewed-human-uniprot-20260313.
