OverviewNCBI Gene

The product encoded by this gene is a laminin that belongs to a family of basement membrane proteins. This protein is a beta subunit laminin, which together with an alpha and a gamma subunit, forms laminin-5. Mutations in this gene cause epidermolysis bullosa junctional Herlitz type, and generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa, diseases that are characterized by blistering of the skin. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against LAMB3 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 LAMB3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against LAMB3 could matter depends on whether native LAMB3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

LAMB3 is annotated as secreted, so native LAMB3 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 LAMB3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
