Oxidized thioredoxin-1 restrains the NLRP1 inflammasome
2021-09-20
Abstract excerpt
At least six human proteins detect danger-associated signals, assemble into complexes called inflammasomes, and trigger pyroptotic cell death. NLRP1 was the first protein discovered to form an inflammasome, but the danger signals and molecular mechanisms that control its activation have not yet been fully established. Here, we report that the NACHT-LRR region of NLRP1 directly binds to oxidized form of thioredoxin...
