OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the slingshot homolog (SSH) family of phosphatases, which regulate actin filament dynamics. The SSH proteins dephosphorylate and activate the actin binding/depolymerizing factor cofilin, which subsequently binds to actin filaments and stimulates their disassembly. Cofilin is inactivated by kinases such as LIM domain kinase-1 (LIMK1), which may also be dephosphorylated and inactivated by SSH proteins. The SSH family thus appears to play a role in actin dynamics by reactivating cofilin proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads SSH1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SSH1 could matter depends on whether native SSH1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SSH1 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 SSH1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
