OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein that is required for utilization of the mannose donor mannose-P-dolichol in the synthesis of lipid-linked oligosaccharides and glycosylphosphatidylinositols. Mutations in this gene result in congenital disorder of glycosylation type If. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against MPDU1 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 MPDU1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MPDU1 could matter depends on whether native MPDU1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

MPDU1 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 MPDU1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
