OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes the seventh largest subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. The protein functions in transcription initiation, and is also thought to help stabilize transcribing polyermase molecules during elongation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]

Whether an antibody against POLR2G 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 POLR2G as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against POLR2G could matter depends on whether native POLR2G is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
POLR2G 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 POLR2G as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
