OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a nuclear RNA binding protein that contains a C2H2 zinc finger motif and a nuclear localization signal. This protein is associated with the nuclear matrix in perichromatin fibrils and, in neurons, localizes to the cytoplasm in association with endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes. This protein interacts with the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), the tumor suppressor protein BRCA1, upregulates RNA polymerase II transcription, and is involved in box C/D snoRNP biogenesis. A pseudogene of this gene resides on chromosome 6q12. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads NUFIP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against NUFIP1 could matter depends on whether native NUFIP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
NUFIP1 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 NUFIP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
