OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein and a common acute lymphocytic leukemia antigen that is an important cell surface marker in the diagnosis of human acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The encoded protein is present on leukemic cells of pre-B phenotype, which represent 85% of cases of ALL. This protein is not restricted to leukemic cells, however, and is found on a variety of normal tissues. The protein is a neutral endopeptidase that cleaves peptides at the amino side of hydrophobic residues and inactivates several peptide hormones including glucagon, enkephalins, substance P, neurotensin, oxytocin, and bradykinin.

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