OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a protein involved in peripheral nerve myelin upkeep. The encoded protein contains 2 PDZ domains which were named after PSD95 (post synaptic density protein), DlgA (Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor), and ZO1 (a mammalian tight junction protein). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene which encode different protein isoforms and which are targeted differently in the Schwann cell. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuoropathy, type 4F and Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads PRX as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PRX could matter depends on whether native PRX is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
PRX is annotated at the cell surface, where native PRX is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label PRX as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
