OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a protein that contains the GAP-related domain (GRD), a characteristic domain of GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). GAPs function as activators of Ras superfamily of small GTPases. The protein encoded by this gene is able to complement the defective RasGAP function in a yeast system. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads RASAL2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RASAL2 could matter depends on whether native RASAL2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
RASAL2 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 RASAL2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
