OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a protein containing two characteristic WXXF motifs. The encoded protein localizes to clathrin-coated vesicles, where it binds components of the adapter protein complexes and aids in endocytosis. Loss of function of this gene results in early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-21. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

Whether an antibody against NECAP1 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 NECAP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NECAP1 could matter depends on whether native NECAP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
NECAP1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native NECAP1 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 NECAP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
