OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein that degrades the bioactive signaling molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate. The encoded protein is induced during inflammatory responses and has been shown to be downregulated by the microRNA-31 tumor suppressor. Alternative splice variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against SGPP2 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 SGPP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SGPP2 could matter depends on whether native SGPP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SGPP2 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 SGPP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
