OverviewNCBI Gene

UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGT) is a soluble protein of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that selectively reglucosylates unfolded glycoproteins, thus providing quality control for protein transport out of the ER.[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against UGGT1 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 UGGT1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against UGGT1 could matter depends on whether native UGGT1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

UGGT1 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 UGGT1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
