OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene belongs to a pro-apoptotic subfamily within the BCL-2 protein family, referred to as the BCL-2 homology domain 3 (BH3)-only subfamily, which determine whether a cell commits to apoptosis. In response to death-inducing stimuli, BH3-only members inhibit the anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family members, which under steady-state conditions keep the multi-BH domain proteins BAX and BAK, in an inactive state.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PMAIP1 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 PMAIP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PMAIP1 could matter depends on whether native PMAIP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PMAIP1 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 PMAIP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
