Recombinant Human NLRP3 Protein

Target Information

Sequence Similarities	Belongs to the NLRP family. Contains 1 DAPIN domain. Contains 9 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. Contains 1 NACHT domain.
Amino Acids	2 to 1036
Cellular Localization	Cytoplasm.
Tissue Specificity	Expressed in blood leukocytes. Strongly expressed in polymorphonuclear cells and osteoblasts. Undetectable or expressed at a lower magnitude in B- and T-lymphoblasts, respectively. High level of expression detected in chondrocytes. Detected in non-keratinizing epithelia of oropharynx, esophagus and ectocervix and in the urothelial layer of the bladder.
Function	May function as an inducer of apoptosis. Interacts selectively with ASC and this complex may function as an upstream activator of NF-kappa-B signaling. Inhibits TNF-alpha induced activation and nuclear translocation of RELA/NF-KB p65. Also inhibits transcriptional activity of RELA. Activates caspase-1 in response to a number of triggers including bacterial or viral infection which leads to processing and release of IL1B and IL18.
