OverviewNCBI Gene

RNF167 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that interacts with TSSC5 (SLC22A18; MIM 602631) and, together with UBCH6 (UBE2E1; MIM 602916), facilitates TSSC5 polyubiquitylation (Yamada and Gorbsky, 2006 [PubMed 16314844]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against RNF167 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 RNF167 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RNF167 could matter depends on whether native RNF167 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

RNF167 is annotated at the cell surface, where native RNF167 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 RNF167 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
