OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an unconventional myosin protein. The encoded protein has been proposed to act as a serine/threonine phosphatase-1 targeting or regulatory subunit. Studies in a rat cell line suggest that this protein may regulate cell cycle progression. A variant within this gene may be associated with susceptibility to schizophrenia and elevated expression of this gene has been observed in the frontal cortex of human schizophrenia patients.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads MYO16 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against MYO16 could matter depends on whether native MYO16 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

MYO16 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 MYO16 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
