Background
NALP proteins, such as NALP2, are characterized by an N-terminal pyrin (MIM 608107) domain (PYD) and are involved in the activation of caspase-1 (CASP1; MIM 147678) by Toll-like receptors (see TLR4; MIM 603030). They may also be involved in protein complexes that activate proinflammatory caspases (Tschopp et al., 2003 [PubMed 12563287]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
Function
domain:The DAPIN domain is necessary and sufficient for suppression of NFKB1 activation induced by TNF and for inducing IL1B secretion in collaboration with caspase-1. It is involved in interaction with PYCARD.,domain:When isolated, the NACHT domain is involved in interaction with CARD8. This interaction is not detected for the full-length protein, maybe due to autoinhibition, this inhibition might by relieved by an inducible change in protein folding.,function:Suppresses TNF- and CD40-induced NFKB1 activity at the level of the IKK complex, by inhibiting NFKBIA degradation induced by TNF. When associated with PYCARD, activates CASP1, leading to the secretion of mature proinflammatory cytokine IL1B. May be a component of the inflammasome, a protein complex which also includes PYCARD, CARD8 and CASP1 and whose function would be the activation of proinflammatory caspases.,induction:By inter
