OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homodimer, using ATP hydrolysis to catalyze the conversion of 5-oxo-L-proline to L-glutamate. Defects in this gene are a cause of 5-oxoprolinase deficiency (OPLAHD). [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

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

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