OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the Kunitz-type serine proteinase inhibitor family. The protein can inhibit a variety of serine proteases including factor VIIa/tissue factor, factor Xa, plasmin, trypsin, chymotryspin and plasma kallikrein. This gene has been identified as a tumor suppressor gene in several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

Whether an antibody against TFPI2 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 TFPI2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TFPI2 could matter depends on whether native TFPI2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
TFPI2 is annotated as secreted, so native TFPI2 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label TFPI2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
