OverviewNCBI Gene
Predicted to enable ubiquitin conjugating enzyme binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in norepinephrine metabolic process; positive regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; and serotonin metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including adult behavior; positive regulation of protein ubiquitination; and protein polyubiquitination. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum; membrane; and nuclear envelope. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads RNF180 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RNF180 could matter depends on whether native RNF180 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
RNF180 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 RNF180 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
