OverviewNCBI Gene

The human pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) are a group of molecules that are mainly produced by the placental syncytiotrophoblasts during pregnancy. PSGs comprise a subgroup of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family, which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. For additional general information about the PSG gene family, see PSG1 (MIM 176390).[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against PSG11 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PSG11 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PSG11 could matter depends on whether native PSG11 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PSG11 is annotated as secreted, so native PSG11 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label PSG11 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
