OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene belongs to the T-box family of genes, which encode a phylogenetically conserved family of transcription factors that regulate a variety of developmental processes. All these genes contain a common T-box DNA-binding domain. Mutations in this gene are associated with Cousin syndrome.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TBX15 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 TBX15 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TBX15 could matter depends on whether native TBX15 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TBX15 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 TBX15 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
