OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein that hydrolyzes purine nucleotide phosphoramidates substrates, including AMP-morpholidate, AMP-N-alanine methyl ester, AMP-alpha-acetyl lysine methyl ester, and AMP-NH2. The encoded protein interacts with these substrates via a histidine triad motif. This gene is considered a tumor suppressor gene. In addition, mutations in this gene can cause autosomal recessive neuromyotonia and axonal neuropathy. There are several related pseudogenes on chromosome 7. Several transcript variants have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against HINT1 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 HINT1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HINT1 could matter depends on whether native HINT1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

HINT1 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 HINT1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
