OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein containing a PHD (plant homeodomain) type zinc finger. This gene has been identified in some studies as a candidate gene for asthma. Naturally-occurring readthrough transcription may occur from the upstream SETDB2 (SET domain bifurcated 2) gene to this locus. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PHF11 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PHF11 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PHF11 could matter depends on whether native PHF11 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PHF11 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 PHF11 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
