OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family 1 and has been shown to be a receptor for prostacyclin. Prostacyclin, the major product of cyclooxygenase in macrovascular endothelium, elicits a potent vasodilation and inhibition of platelet aggregation through binding to this receptor.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

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

PTGIR is annotated at the cell surface, where native PTGIR 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 PTGIR as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
