OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that may have roles in transcription and other nuclear processes. The encoded protein contains a KRAB (Kruppel-associated box) domain -A box and a SET (Su(var)3-9, Enhancer-of-zeste, Trithorax) domain and may function as a histone methyltransferase.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PRDM7 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 PRDM7 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PRDM7 could matter depends on whether native PRDM7 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PRDM7 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 PRDM7 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
