OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is a member of a gene family which encodes proteins with a basic helix-loop-helix domain. Other members of this gene family encode proteins which function as transcription factors, either enhancing or inhibiting transcription depending on the activity of other DNA binding proteins. The coding region of this gene is located entirely within the terminal exon. The encoded protein may be involved in the survival of neurons (PMID: 15034937). Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

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 GPRASP3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GPRASP3 could matter depends on whether native GPRASP3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GPRASP3 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label GPRASP3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
