OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is predicted to encode a glycosylated, cationic amino acid transporter protein with 14 transmembrane domains. This gene is primarily expressed in skin fibroblasts, neural tissue, and primary endothelial cells and its protein is predicted to mediate lysosomal uptake of cationic amino acids. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa. In mice, this gene is expressed in the photoreceptor layer of the retina where its expression increases over the course of retinal development and persists in the mature retina.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against SLC7A14 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 SLC7A14 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SLC7A14 could matter depends on whether native SLC7A14 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SLC7A14 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 SLC7A14 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
