General annotation (Comments)
| Function | May function as an inducer of apoptosis. Interacts selectively with ASC and this complex may function as an upstream activator of NF-kappa-B signaling. Inhibits TNF-alpha induced activation and nuclear translocation of RELA/NF-KB p65. Also inhibits transcriptional activity of RELA By similarity. Activates caspase-1 as part of the NALP3 inflammasome complex in response to a number of triggers including bacterial or viral infection which leads to processing and release of IL1B and IL18. Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with PYCARD/ASC. Part of the NALP3 inflammasome complex which is involved in activation of caspase-1 and caspase-5, leading to processing of IL1B and IL18 By similarity. Interacts with PML By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | |
| Tissue specificity | Widely expressed with high levels in peripheral blood leukocytes. Not detected in thymus. Ref.2 Ref.6 |
| Disruption phenotype | Mice display lack of activation of caspase-1 in response to stimuli such as LPS and ATP, viral infection, bacterial and viral RNA, non-viral double-stranded RNA, nigericin, maitotoxin and the imidazoquinoline compounds R837 and R848. Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 |
| Miscellaneous | Expression is increased in mice with experimental atopic dermatitis. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the NLRP family. Contains 1 DAPIN domain. Contains 9 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. Contains 1 NACHT domain. |
