OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the keratin-associated protein (KAP) family. The KAP proteins form a matrix of keratin intermediate filaments which contribute to the structure of hair fibers. KAP family members appear to have unique, family-specific amino- and carboxyl-terminal regions and are subdivided into three multi-gene families according to amino acid composition: the high sulfur, the ultrahigh sulfur, and the high tyrosine/glycine KAPs. This gene encodes a member of the high sulfur KAP family. It is localized to a cluster of intronless KAPs at 21q22.3 which are located within the introns of the C21orf29 gene.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads KRTAP10-3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against KRTAP10-3 could matter depends on whether native KRTAP10-3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

KRTAP10-3 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 KRTAP10-3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
