OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene belongs to the protocadherin gene family, a subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein consists of an extracellular domain containing 7 cadherin repeats, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tail that differs from those of the classical cadherins. The gene is located in a major X/Y block of homology and its Y homolog, despite divergence leading to coding region changes, is the most closely related cadherin family member. The protein is thought to play a fundamental role in cell-cell recognition essential for the segmental development and function of the central nervous system. Disruption of this gene may be associated with developmental dyslexia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PCDH11X as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PCDH11X could matter depends on whether native PCDH11X is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PCDH11X is annotated at the cell surface, where native PCDH11X 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 PCDH11X as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
