OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is found in the nucleolus and is similar to that of a family of genes on the Y-chromosome. This gene is intronless. Defects in this gene are a cause of sudden infant death with dysgenesis of the testes syndrome (SIDDT). [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against TSPYL1 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 TSPYL1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TSPYL1 could matter depends on whether native TSPYL1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TSPYL1 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 TSPYL1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
