OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the stathmin family of phosphoproteins. Stathmin proteins function in microtubule dynamics and signal transduction. The encoded protein plays a regulatory role in neuronal growth and is also thought to be involved in osteogenesis. Reductions in the expression of this gene have been associated with Down's syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads STMN2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against STMN2 could matter depends on whether native STMN2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
STMN2 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 STMN2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
