OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the 5'-nucleotidase family of enzymes that catalyze the dephosphorylation of nucleoside 5'-monophosphates. The encoded protein is the type 1 isozyme of pyrimidine 5' nucleotidase and catalyzes the dephosphorylation of pyrimidine 5' monophosphates. Mutations in this gene are a cause of hemolytic anemia due to uridine 5-prime monophosphate hydrolase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene, and pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosomes 3 and 4.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against NT5C3A 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 NT5C3A as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NT5C3A could matter depends on whether native NT5C3A is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

NT5C3A 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 NT5C3A as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
