OverviewNCBI Gene
Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in 2 sequential transesterification steps. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of both U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomes, and found to be essential for the catalytic step II in pre-mRNA splicing process. It contains several WD repeats, which function in protein-protein interactions. This protein has a sequence similarity to yeast Prp8 protein. This gene is a candidate gene for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads PRPF8 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PRPF8 could matter depends on whether native PRPF8 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
PRPF8 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 PRPF8 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
