OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the synaptotagmin-like (Slp) protein family, which contains a unique homology domain at the N-terminus, referred to as the Slp homology domain (SHD). The SHD functions as a binding site for Rab27A, which plays a role in protein transport. Expression of this gene is restricted to placenta and liver, suggesting that it might be involved in Rab27A-dependent membrane trafficking in specific tissues. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against SYTL5 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 SYTL5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SYTL5 could matter depends on whether native SYTL5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

SYTL5 is annotated at the cell surface, where native SYTL5 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 SYTL5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
