OverviewNCBI Gene

GXYLT1 is a xylosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.-) that adds the first xylose to O-glucose-modified residues in the epidermal growth factor (EGF; MIM 131530) repeats of proteins such as NOTCH1 (MIM 190198) (Sethi et al., 2010 [PubMed 19940119]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2010]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against GXYLT1 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 GXYLT1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against GXYLT1 could matter depends on whether native GXYLT1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

GXYLT1 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 GXYLT1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
