OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein that catalyzes the addition of an alkyl group from an akylamine to a glutamine residue of a protein, forming an alkylglutamine in the protein. This protein alkylation leads to crosslinking of proteins and catenation of polyamines to proteins. This gene contains either one or two copies of a 22 nt repeat unit in its 3' UTR. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive lamellar ichthyosis (LI) and nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NCIE). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against TGM1 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 TGM1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TGM1 could matter depends on whether native TGM1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
TGM1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native TGM1 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 TGM1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
