OverviewNCBI Gene
N-alpha-acetylation is among the most common post-translational protein modifications in eukaryotic cells. This process involves the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-coenzyme A to the alpha-amino group on a nascent polypeptide and is essential for normal cell function. This gene encodes the auxillary subunit of the N-terminal acetyltransferase A (NatA) complex. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads NAA15 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NAA15 could matter depends on whether native NAA15 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
NAA15 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 NAA15 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
