OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a non-specific nucleoside triphosphatase that is slow-acting in vitro. This gene is overexpressed in many tumor tissues, and while it is not essential for the cell, overexpression is cytotoxic. However, the cytotoxicity is not related to its triphosphatase activity.

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