OverviewNCBI Gene
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are ubiquitous components of the cell surface, extracellular matrix, and basement membranes, and interact with various ligands to influence cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate (HS) sulfotransferase gene family, which catalyze the transfer of sulfate to HS. Different family members and isoforms are thought to synthesize heparan sulfates with tissue-specific structures and functions. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against HS6ST2 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 HS6ST2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HS6ST2 could matter depends on whether native HS6ST2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
HS6ST2 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 HS6ST2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
