OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a type I integral membrane glycoprotein. The encoded protein acts as a receptor and binds to both soluble and immobilized hyaluronan. This protein may function in lymphatic hyaluronan transport and have a role in tumor metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against LYVE1 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 LYVE1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against LYVE1 could matter depends on whether native LYVE1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
LYVE1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native LYVE1 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 LYVE1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
