This study of DS-affinity enrichment of liver proteins establishes a comprehensive autoantigen-ome for autoimmune liver diseases, yielding 104 verified and 108 potential autoantigens. The liver autoantigen-ome sheds light on the molecular origins of autoimmune liver diseases and further supports the notion of a unifying biochemical principle of autoantigenicity.
