OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a scaffold protein that regulates the JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) and NOD2 (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2) signaling pathways. The encoded protein interacts with another related JNK pathway scaffold protein, WDR62, via a conserved dimerization domain, and enhances JNK signaling. This protein may play a role in bacterial immunity by binding to the NOD2 receptor and negatively regulating downstream antibacterial and pro-inflammatory signaling. Mutations in this gene that impair cellular localization of the encoded protein cause a form of nephronophthisis, an autosomal-recessive kidney disorder, in human patients.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against MAPKBP1 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 MAPKBP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MAPKBP1 could matter depends on whether native MAPKBP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

MAPKBP1 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 MAPKBP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
