OverviewNCBI Gene

The human G6f protein is a type I transmembrane protein belonging to the immunoglobin (Ig) superfamily, which is comprised of cell-surface proteins involved in the immune system and cellular recognition (de Vet et al., 2003 [PubMed 12852788]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against LY6G6F can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

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 LY6G6F as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against LY6G6F could matter depends on whether native LY6G6F is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

LY6G6F is annotated at the cell surface, where native LY6G6F is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label LY6G6F as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
