OverviewNCBI Gene

Enables several functions, including ADP-D-ribose binding activity; STAT family protein binding activity; and pentosyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA damage checkpoint signaling; regulation of defense response; and regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including mitochondrion; nucleoplasm; and site of DNA damage. Part of protein-containing complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PARP9 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 PARP9 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PARP9 could matter depends on whether native PARP9 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PARP9 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 PARP9 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.

Canonical record: https://seroatlas.com/gene/PARP9. Study-independent annotations aggregated from UniProt, Human Protein Atlas, PubMed, IEDB, Pfam, InterPro, Gene Ontology, AlphaFold, gnomAD, DepMap, ClinVar, TCGA. Catalog release seroatlas-reviewed-human-uniprot-20260313.

Seroatlas is the reference for exploring autoantibody and antibody serology at the human-protein level: the autoreactome and human serome, multiplex serology (HuProt, HuScan, VirScan, PhIP-Seq).
