OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the sodium glucose cotransporter family which are sodium-dependent glucose transport proteins. The encoded protein is the major cotransporter involved in glucose reabsorption in the kidney. Mutations in this gene are associated with renal glucosuria. Two transcript variants, one protein-coding and one not, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

Whether an antibody against SLC5A2 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 SLC5A2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SLC5A2 could matter depends on whether native SLC5A2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SLC5A2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native SLC5A2 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 SLC5A2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
