OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads TSPAN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TSPAN1 could matter depends on whether native TSPAN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
TSPAN1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native TSPAN1 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 TSPAN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
