OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the Nedd4 family of HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligases. HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligases transfer ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes to protein substrates, thus targeting specific proteins for lysosomal degradation. The encoded protein mediates the ubiquitination of multiple target substrates and plays a critical role in epithelial sodium transport by regulating the cell surface expression of the epithelial sodium channel, ENaC. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with essential hypertension. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against NEDD4L 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 NEDD4L as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NEDD4L could matter depends on whether native NEDD4L is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NEDD4L 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 NEDD4L as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
