OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the histatin family of small, histidine-rich, cationic proteins. They function as antimicrobial peptides and are important components of the innate immune system. Histatins are found in saliva and exhibit antibacterial, antifungal activities and function in wound healing. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]

Whether an antibody against HTN1 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 HTN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HTN1 could matter depends on whether native HTN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
HTN1 is annotated as secreted, so native HTN1 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label HTN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
