Whether an antibody against HOXA1 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Protein binding partners of HOXA1 in the human serome: UniProt-annotated complex subunits plus reported interactors. Each links to its own Seroatlas record.
Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads HOXA1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HOXA1 could matter depends on whether native HOXA1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
HOXA1 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 HOXA1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
