OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the synaptotagmin like protein family. Members of this family are characterized by an N-terminal Rab27 binding domain and C-terminal tandem C2 domains. The encoded protein binds specific small Rab GTPases and is involved in intracellular membrane trafficking. This protein binds Rab27 and may be involved in inhibiting dense core vesicle exocytosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Whether an antibody against SYTL4 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 SYTL4 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SYTL4 could matter depends on whether native SYTL4 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SYTL4 is annotated at the cell surface, where native SYTL4 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 SYTL4 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
