OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, a B-box type 1, a B-box type 2, and a coiled-coil region. The protein localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and may represent a participant in the initiation of glycogen synthesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads TRIM7 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TRIM7 could matter depends on whether native TRIM7 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TRIM7 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 TRIM7 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
