OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the multiple epidermal growth factor-like domains protein family. The encoded protein plays a role in cell adhesion, motility and proliferation, and is a critical mediator of apoptotic cell phagocytosis as well as amyloid-beta peptide uptake in the brain. Expression of this gene may be associated with schizophrenia, and mutations in this gene are a cause of early-onset myopathy, areflexia, respiratory distress, and dysphagia (EMARDD) as well as congenital myopathy with minicores. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads MEGF10 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MEGF10 could matter depends on whether native MEGF10 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
MEGF10 is annotated at the cell surface, where native MEGF10 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 MEGF10 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
