OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the tweety family of proteins. Members of this family function as chloride anion channels. The encoded protein functions as a calcium(2+)-activated large conductance chloride(-) channel. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against TTYH3 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 TTYH3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TTYH3 could matter depends on whether native TTYH3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
TTYH3 is annotated at the cell surface, where native TTYH3 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 TTYH3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
