OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of a Rab GTPase activating protein. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with a non-catalytic subunit to specifically regulate the activity of members of the Rab3 subfamily of small G proteins. This protein mediates the hydrolysis of GTP bound Rab3 to the GDP bound form. Mutations in this gene are associated with Warburg micro syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against RAB3GAP1 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 RAB3GAP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RAB3GAP1 could matter depends on whether native RAB3GAP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

RAB3GAP1 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 RAB3GAP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
