OverviewNCBI Gene

Enables several functions, including RNA binding activity; eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding activity; and ribosomal small subunit binding activity. Involved in several processes, including TORC1 signaling; cellular response to rapamycin; and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Located in TORC1 complex and cytoplasmic stress granule. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against LARP1 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 LARP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against LARP1 could matter depends on whether native LARP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

LARP1 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 LARP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
