DPP9 directly sequesters the NLRP1 C-terminus to repress inflammasome activation
2020-08-14
Abstract excerpt
NLRP1 is a cytosolic inflammasome sensor that mediates activation of caspase-1, which in turn induces cytokine maturation and pyroptotic cell death 1-6 . Gain-of-function NLPR1 mutations cause skin inflammatory diseases including carcinoma, keratosis, and papillomatosis 7-14 . NLRP1 contains a unique function-to-find domain (FIIND) that autoproteolyzes into noncovalently associated subdomains 15-18 . Proteasoma...
