OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily. The encoded integral membrane protein is a likely cannabinoid receptor. It may be involved in several physiological and pathological processes by activating a variety of signal transduction pathways. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

Whether an antibody against GPR55 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 GPR55 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GPR55 could matter depends on whether native GPR55 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
GPR55 is annotated at the cell surface, where native GPR55 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 GPR55 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
