OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is a member of a conserved family of genes that share a common DNA-binding domain, the T-box. T-box genes encode transcription factors involved in the regulation of numerous developmental processes. In mouse, the ortholog of this gene is expressed in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, amygdala and olfactory bulb and is thought to play an important role in neuronal migration and axonal projection. In mouse, the C-terminal region of this protein was found to be necessary and sufficient for association with the guanylate kinase domain of calcium/calmodulin-dependent serine protein kinase.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TBR1 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 TBR1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TBR1 could matter depends on whether native TBR1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TBR1 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 TBR1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
