OverviewNCBI Gene

HS3ST5 belongs to a group of heparan sulfate 3-O-sulfotransferases (EC 2.8.2.23) that transfer sulfate from 3-prime-phosphoadenosine 5-prime phosphosulfate (PAPS) to heparan sulfate and heparin (Mochizuki et al., 2003 [PubMed 12740361]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against HS3ST5 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 HS3ST5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HS3ST5 could matter depends on whether native HS3ST5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

HS3ST5 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 HS3ST5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
