OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene product belongs to a family of nonselective cation channels that function in a variety of processes, including temperature sensation and vasoregulation. The thermosensitive members of this family are expressed in subsets of sensory neurons that terminate in the skin, and are activated at distinct physiological temperatures. This channel is activated at temperatures between 22 and 40 degrees C. This gene lies in close proximity to another family member gene on chromosome 17, and the two encoded proteins are thought to associate with each other to form heteromeric channels. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TRPV3 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 TRPV3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TRPV3 could matter depends on whether native TRPV3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TRPV3 is annotated at the cell surface, where native TRPV3 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 TRPV3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
