OverviewNCBI Gene

NKAIN3 is a member of a family of mammalian proteins (see NKAIN1; MIM 612871) with similarity to Drosophila Nkain (Gorokhova et al., 2007 [PubMed 17606467]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against NKAIN3 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 NKAIN3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NKAIN3 could matter depends on whether native NKAIN3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NKAIN3 is annotated at the cell surface, where native NKAIN3 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 NKAIN3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
