OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a multi-pass membrane protein that is localized to the golgi apparatus. It is involved in the retention of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane proteins in the ER and retrieval of ER membrane proteins from the early Golgi compartment to facilitate gamma-secretase complex assembly.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against RER1 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 RER1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RER1 could matter depends on whether native RER1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

RER1 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 RER1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
