OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. The encoded protein is a phosphoserine aminotransferase and decreased expression may be associated with schizophrenia. Mutations in this gene are also associated with phosphoserine aminotransferase deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 1, 3, and 8. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PSAT1 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 PSAT1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PSAT1 could matter depends on whether native PSAT1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PSAT1 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 PSAT1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
