OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene shares significant homology to the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein-binding EB1 gene family. This protein is a microtubule-associated protein that is necessary for spindle symmetry during mitosis. It is thought to play a role in the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancers and the proliferative control of normal cells. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against MAPRE2 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 MAPRE2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MAPRE2 could matter depends on whether native MAPRE2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

MAPRE2 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 MAPRE2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
