OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the pantothenate kinase family. Pantothenate kinases are key regulatory enzymes in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA). The encoded protein catalyzes the first and rate-limiting enzymatic reaction in CoA biosynthesis and is regulated by CoA through feedback inhibition. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. This gene and an intronic miRNA on the same strand are co-regulated by the tumor suppressor p53 (see PMID 20833636). [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PANK1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PANK1 could matter depends on whether native PANK1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PANK1 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 PANK1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
