Uveal autoantigen with coiled-coil domains and ankyrin repeats is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UACA gene. Diseases associated with UACA include Graves' Disease. Among its related pathways are signaling by Rho GTPases and Intrinsic Pathway for Apoptosis. An important paralog of this gene is ANKRD24.
