Phosphoprotein Phosphatase Activity Positively Regulates Oligomeric Pyrin to Trigger Inflammasome Assembly in Phagocytes
2022-03-23
Abstract excerpt
Pyrin is a pattern-recognition receptor in phagocytes that triggers capase-1 inflammasome assembly in response to bacterial toxins and effectors that inactivate RhoA. Pyrin contains oligomerization domains and is negatively regulated by phosphorylation of two residues, S205 and S241 (murine) or S208 and S242 (human), via the kinases PKN1/2, which are activated by RhoA. Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is caused...
