OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a glycosylated transmembrane protein that plays a role in lens and eye development. Mutations in this gene, including a t(16;22)(p13.3;q11.2) translocation, are associated with congenital and juvenile cataract disorders. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TMEM114 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads TMEM114 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TMEM114 could matter depends on whether native TMEM114 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TMEM114 is annotated at the cell surface, where native TMEM114 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 TMEM114 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
