OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cytospin-A family. It is localized in the nucleus, and highly expressed in testis and some cancer cell lines. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and platelet-derived growth factor receptor, beta gene (PDGFRB) may be a cause of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Whether an antibody against SPECC1 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 SPECC1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SPECC1 could matter depends on whether native SPECC1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SPECC1 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 SPECC1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
