OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is thought to be an ATP-dependent DNA helicase and is expressed mainly in germ-line cells. Defects in this gene are a cause of premature ovarian failure 9 (POF9). [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against HFM1 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 HFM1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HFM1 could matter depends on whether native HFM1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

HFM1 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 HFM1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
