OverviewNCBI Gene
Enables GTPase binding activity; T cell receptor binding activity; and cardiolipin binding activity. Involved in intracellular calcium ion homeostasis; mitochondrion organization; and protein complex oligomerization. Acts upstream of or within T cell receptor signaling pathway. Located in several cellular components, including immunological synapse; membrane raft; and mitochondrial envelope. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Whether an antibody against STOML2 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 STOML2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against STOML2 could matter depends on whether native STOML2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
STOML2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native STOML2 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label STOML2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
