OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a RPIP8, UNC-14, and NESCA domain-containing protein that is required for maintenance of neuronal polarity. In addition, it has been implicated in mediation of gastric cancer cell migration and invasion via interaction with P21-activated kinase-1, which promotes its expression. The encoded protein localizes to F-actin-enriched invadopodia to induce formation of protrusions, thereby facilitating cell migration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Whether an antibody against RUFY3 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 RUFY3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against RUFY3 could matter depends on whether native RUFY3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
RUFY3 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 RUFY3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
