OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene belongs to the protocadherin subfamily within the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein is a membrane protein found at cell-cell boundaries. It is involved in neural cell adhesion, suggesting a possible role in neuronal development. The protein includes an extracelllular region, containing 7 cadherin-like domains, a transmembrane region and a C-terminal cytoplasmic region. Cells expressing the protein showed cell aggregation activity. Alternative splicing occurs in this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads PCDH1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PCDH1 could matter depends on whether native PCDH1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
PCDH1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native PCDH1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label PCDH1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
