Name | NLRP2 |
---|---|
Synonyms | NALP2, NBS1, PAN1, PYPAF2 |
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 pro-inflammatory 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 pro-inflammatory caspases. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm |
Tissue Location | Expressed at high levels in lung, placenta and thymus and at lower levels in ovary, intestine and brain (PubMed:15456791). Highly abundant in oocytes and early embryos, however poorly expressed in somatic tissues such as brain, kidney, liver and spinal cord (PubMed:30877238). |
