OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a regulatory subunit of the SMG1 complex, which plays a critical role in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Binding of the encoded protein to the SMG1 complex kinase scaffold protein results in the inhibition of its kinase activity. Mutations in this gene cause a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome in human patients, characterized by brain malformation, congenital heart disease and other features. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Whether an antibody against SMG9 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 SMG9 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SMG9 could matter depends on whether native SMG9 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SMG9 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 SMG9 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
