Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

| Name | NLRP1 {ECO:0000303|PubMed:22665479, ECO:0000312|HGNC:HGNC:14374} |
|---|---|
| Function | Acts as the sensor component of the NLRP1 inflammasome, which mediates inflammasome activation in response to various pathogen- associated signals, leading to subsequent pyroptosis (PubMed:12191486, PubMed:17349957, PubMed:22665479, PubMed:27662089, PubMed:31484767, PubMed:33093214, PubMed:33410748, PubMed:33731929, PubMed:33731932, PubMed:35857590). Inflammasomes are supramolecular complexes that assemble in the cytosol in response to pathogens and other damage- associated signals and play critical roles in innate immunity and inflammation (PubMed:12191486, PubMed:17349957, PubMed:22665479). Acts as a recognition receptor (PRR): recognizes specific pathogens and other damage-associated signals, such as cleavage by some human enteroviruses and rhinoviruses, double-stranded RNA, UV-B irradiation, or Val-boroPro inhibitor, and mediates the formation of the inflammasome polymeric complex composed of NLRP1, CASP1 and PYCARD/ASC (PubMed:12191486, PubMed:17349957, PubMed:22665479, PubMed:25562666, PubMed:30096351, PubMed:30291141, PubMed:33093214, PubMed:33243852, PubMed:33410748, PubMed:35857590). In response to pathogen-associated signals, the N-terminal part of NLRP1 is degraded by the proteasome, releasing the cleaved C-terminal part of the protein (NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 1, C-terminus), which polymerizes and associates with PYCARD/ASC to initiate the formation of the inflammasome complex: the NLRP1 inflammasome recruits pro-caspase-1 (proCASP1) and promotes caspase-1 (CASP1) activation, which subsequently cleaves and activates inflammatory cytokines IL1B and IL18 and gasdermin-D (GSDMD), leading to pyroptosis (PubMed:12191486, PubMed:17349957, PubMed:22665479, PubMed:32051255, PubMed:33093214). In the absence of GSDMD expression, the NLRP1 inflammasome is able to recruit and activate CASP8, leading to activation of gasdermin-E (GSDME) (PubMed:33852854, PubMed:35594856). Activation of NLRP1 inflammasome is also required for HMGB1 secretion; the active cytokines and HMGB1 stimulate inflammatory responses (PubMed:22801494). Binds ATP and shows ATPase activity (PubMed:11113115, PubMed:15212762, PubMed:33243852). Plays an important role in antiviral immunity and inflammation in the human airway epithelium (PubMed:33093214). Specifically recognizes a number of pathogen-associated signals: upon infection by human rhinoviruses 14 and 16 (HRV-14 and HRV-16), NLRP1 is cleaved and activated which triggers NLRP1-dependent inflammasome activation and IL18 secretion (PubMed:33093214). Positive-strand RNA viruses, such as Semliki forest virus and long dsRNA activate the NLRP1 inflammasome, triggering IL1B release in a NLRP1-dependent fashion (PubMed:33243852). Acts as a direct sensor for long dsRNA and thus RNA virus infection (PubMed:33243852). May also be activated by muramyl dipeptide (MDP), a fragment of bacterial peptidoglycan, in a NOD2- dependent manner (PubMed:18511561). The NLRP1 inflammasome is also activated in response to UV-B irradiation causing ribosome collisions: ribosome collisions cause phosphorylation and activation of NLRP1 in a MAP3K20-dependent manner, leading to pyroptosis (PubMed:35857590). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Nucleocytoplasmic distribution in lymphoid organs (probably in T-cells) and in neurons. In epithelial cells, predominantly cytoplasmic. [NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 1, N-terminus]: Nucleus. Note=(Microbial infection) Interaction with human herpes virus 8/HHV-8 proteins ORF45 promotes translocation of the N-terminal part of NLRP1 into the nucleus, relieving autoinhibition of the NLRP1 inflammasome and leading to its activation. |
| Tissue Location | Widely expressed (PubMed:11113115, PubMed:17164409). Abundantly expressed in primary immune cells (isoform 1 and isoform 2), including in neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells (mostly Langerhans cells), and B- and T-lymphocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:15285719, PubMed:17164409). Strongly expressed in epithelial cells lining the glandular epithelium, such as that of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small intestine, colon), the respiratory tract (trachea and bronchi), and the endometrial and endocervical glands, gallbladder, prostate, and breast (at protein level). In testis, expressed in spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes, but not in Sertoli cells (at protein level). In the brain, expressed in neurons, in particular in pyramidal ones and in oligodendrocytes, but not detected in microglia (at protein level) (PubMed:17164409). Expressed in adult and fetal ocular tissues, including in adult and 24-week old fetal choroid, sclera, cornea, and optic nerve, as well as in adult retina and fetal retina/retinal pigment epithelium (PubMed:23349227). Highly expressed in the skin throughout the epidermis and in dermal fibroblasts, in both glabrous skin and plantar skin. It is detected in keratinocytes, but not in melanocytes. Expressed in epidermal appendages such as hair follicles (PubMed:27662089). |
