OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a GTP-binding protein that belongs to the small GTPase superfamily and Ras family of proteins. GTP-binding proteins mediate the transmembrane signaling initiated by the occupancy of certain cell surface receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against RALB 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 RALB as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RALB could matter depends on whether native RALB is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
RALB is annotated at the cell surface, where native RALB 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 RALB as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
