OverviewNCBI Gene

Spectrins are a family of filamentous cytoskeletal proteins that function as essential scaffold proteins that stabilize the plasma membrane and organize intracellular organelles. Spectrins are composed of alpha and beta dimers that associate to form tetramers linked in a head-to-head arrangement. This gene encodes an alpha spectrin that is specifically expressed in nonerythrocytic cells. The encoded protein has been implicated in other cellular functions including DNA repair and cell cycle regulation. Mutations in this gene are the cause of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-5. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads SPTAN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SPTAN1 could matter depends on whether native SPTAN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SPTAN1 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 SPTAN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
