OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein containing NCL-1, HT2A and Lin-41 (NHL) family repeats. Mammalian NHL-repeat containing proteins may be involved in a variety of enzymatic processes, including protein modification through ubiquitination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against NHLRC3 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 NHLRC3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NHLRC3 could matter depends on whether native NHLRC3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NHLRC3 is annotated as secreted, so native NHLRC3 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label NHLRC3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
