OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear receptor coactivator that interacts with nuclear hormone receptors to enhance their transcriptional activator functions. The encoded protein has histone acetyltransferase activity and recruits p300/CBP-associated factor and CREB binding protein as part of a multisubunit coactivation complex. This protein is initially found in the cytoplasm but is translocated into the nucleus upon phosphorylation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In addition, a polymorphic repeat region is found in the C-terminus of the encoded protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against NCOA3 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 NCOA3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NCOA3 could matter depends on whether native NCOA3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NCOA3 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 NCOA3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
