OverviewNCBI Gene
Osteoclast-stimulating factor-1 is an intracellular protein produced by osteoclasts that indirectly induces osteoclast formation and bone resorption (Reddy et al., 1998 [PubMed 10092216]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Whether an antibody against OSTF1 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 OSTF1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against OSTF1 could matter depends on whether native OSTF1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
OSTF1 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 OSTF1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
