OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the tigger subfamily of the pogo superfamily of DNA-mediated transposons in humans. These proteins are related to DNA transposons found in fungi and nematodes, and more distantly to the Tc1 and mariner transposases. They are also very similar to the major mammalian centromere protein B. The exact function of this gene is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads TIGD5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TIGD5 could matter depends on whether native TIGD5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TIGD5 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 TIGD5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
