OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene is located within the region of chromosome 9p that harbors tumor suppressor genes critical in carcinogenesis. It is an intronless gene which is downregulated in non-small-cell lung cancer and small-cell lung cancer cell lines, suggesting that it may play a role in lung tumorigenesis.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads TUSC1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against TUSC1 could matter depends on whether native TUSC1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
TUSC1 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 TUSC1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
