OverviewNCBI Gene

This tumor suppressor gene is a member of a nuclear histone/protein methyltransferase superfamily. It encodes a zinc finger protein that can bind to retinoblastoma protein, estrogen receptor, and the TPA-responsive element (MTE) of the heme-oxygenase-1 gene. Although the functions of this protein have not been fully characterized, it may (1) play a role in transcriptional regulation during neuronal differentiation and pathogenesis of retinoblastoma, (2) act as a transcriptional activator of the heme-oxygenase-1 gene, and (3) be a specific effector of estrogen action. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PRDM2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PRDM2 could matter depends on whether native PRDM2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PRDM2 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 PRDM2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
