OverviewNCBI Gene
The gene product inhibits renin activity by forming a dimer with renin, a complex known as high molecular weight renin. The encoded protein contains a leucine zipper domain, which is essential for its dimerization with renin. The gene product can catalyze the interconversion of N-acetylglucosamine to N-acetylmannosamine, indicating that it is a GlcNAc 2-epimerase. Transcript variants utilizing alternative promoters have been described in the literature. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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