OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the uridine diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase protein family. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the transfer of glucuronic acid from uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid to a diverse array of substrates including steroid hormones and lipid-soluble drugs. This process, known as glucuronidation, is an intermediate step in the metabolism of steroids. Copy number variation in this gene is associated with susceptibility to osteoporosis.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against UGT2B17 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 UGT2B17 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against UGT2B17 could matter depends on whether native UGT2B17 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

UGT2B17 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 UGT2B17 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
