OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene is a KRAB-related zinc finger protein that inhibits the transcription of some MAPK signaling pathway genes. The repressor activity resides in the KRAB domain of the encoded protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads ZNF383 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ZNF383 could matter depends on whether native ZNF383 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ZNF383 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 ZNF383 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
