OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene functions early in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biosynthetic pathway, catalyzing the inositol deacylation of GPI. The encoded protein is required for the production of GPI that can attach to proteins, and this may be an important factor in the transport of GPI-anchored proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi. Defects in this gene are a cause an autosomal recessive form of cognitive impairment. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PGAP1 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 PGAP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PGAP1 could matter depends on whether native PGAP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PGAP1 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 PGAP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
