OverviewNCBI Gene
Enables ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Involved in rescue of stalled ribosome and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the C-end degron rule pathway. Located in nucleoplasm. Is active in Cul2-RING ubiquitin ligase complex and cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads KLHDC10 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against KLHDC10 could matter depends on whether native KLHDC10 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
KLHDC10 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 KLHDC10 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
