OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an enzyme that is involved in the inactivation of the chemotactic factor, leukotriene B4. The encoded protein specifically catalyzes the NADP+ dependent conversion of leukotriene B4 to 12-oxo-leukotriene B4. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads PTGR1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against PTGR1 could matter depends on whether native PTGR1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

PTGR1 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 PTGR1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
