OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the tubulin tyrosine ligase like protein family. This protein interacts with two glucocorticoid receptor coactivators, transcriptional intermediary factor 2 and steroid receptor coactivator 1. This protein may function as a coregulator of glucocorticoid receptor mediated gene induction and repression. This protein may also function as an alpha tubulin polyglutamylase.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads TTLL5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TTLL5 could matter depends on whether native TTLL5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

TTLL5 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 TTLL5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
