OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein similar to Rhomboid in Drosophila which is involved in signalling in the Spitz/epidermal growth factor receptor/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. The Rhomboid family of proteins consists of intramembrane serine proteases containing several transmembrane domains. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against RHBDL1 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 RHBDL1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RHBDL1 could matter depends on whether native RHBDL1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

RHBDL1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native RHBDL1 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 RHBDL1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
