OverviewNCBI Gene

SLC2A7 belongs to a family of transporters that catalyze the uptake of sugars through facilitated diffusion (Li et al., 2004). This family of transporters shows conservation of 12 transmembrane helices as well as functionally significant amino acid residues (Joost and Thorens, 2001 [PubMed 11780753]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against SLC2A7 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 SLC2A7 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SLC2A7 could matter depends on whether native SLC2A7 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SLC2A7 is annotated at the cell surface, where native SLC2A7 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 SLC2A7 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
