OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein which acts as an inhibitor of NFkappaB activation. The encoded protein is also involved in MAP/ERK signaling pathway in specific cell types. It may be involved in apoptosis of endothelial cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene related to this gene is located on the X chromosome.[provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TNIP2 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 TNIP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TNIP2 could matter depends on whether native TNIP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TNIP2 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 TNIP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
