OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the RNA-binding motif family of RNA recognition motif proteins. The encoded protein contains an RNA-binding domain made up of two RNA recognition motif subdomains referred to as RNA recognition motif-1 and RNA recognition motif-2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against RBM34 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads RBM34 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RBM34 could matter depends on whether native RBM34 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

RBM34 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 RBM34 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
