Protein binding partners of MAST2 in the human serome: UniProt-annotated complex subunits plus reported interactors. Each links to its own Seroatlas record.
Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads MAST2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MAST2 could matter depends on whether native MAST2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
MAST2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native MAST2 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 MAST2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
