OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene may play a part in the beta-catenin/Lef signaling pathway. Expression of this gene is down-regulated by beta-catenin. Defects in this gene are a cause of hypomyelination with congenital cataract (HCC). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against HYCC1 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 HYCC1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HYCC1 could matter depends on whether native HYCC1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

HYCC1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native HYCC1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label HYCC1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
