OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a brain-enriched nucleotide exchanged factor that contains an N-terminal GEF domain, 2 tandem repeats of EF-hand calcium-binding motifs, and a C-terminal diacylglycerol/phorbol ester-binding domain. This protein can activate small GTPases, including RAS and RAP1/RAS3. The nucleotide exchange activity of this protein can be stimulated by calcium and diacylglycerol. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Whether an antibody against RASGRP2 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 RASGRP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RASGRP2 could matter depends on whether native RASGRP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
RASGRP2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native RASGRP2 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 RASGRP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
