OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the plexin class of proteins. The encoded protein is a class 3 semaphorin receptor, and may be involved in cytoskeletal remodeling and as well as apoptosis. Studies of a similar gene in zebrafish suggest that it is important for axon pathfinding in the developing nervous system. This gene may be associated with tumor progression.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads PLXNA3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PLXNA3 could matter depends on whether native PLXNA3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
PLXNA3 is annotated at the cell surface, where native PLXNA3 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 PLXNA3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
