OverviewNCBI Gene

This is an intronless gene located in a cluster of related genes on the q arm of chromosome 21. The proteins encoded by these genes form disulfide bonds with cysteine residues in hair keratins, thereby contributing to the structure and stability of hair fibers. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads KRTAP10-4 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against KRTAP10-4 could matter depends on whether native KRTAP10-4 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

KRTAP10-4 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 KRTAP10-4 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
