Rabbit anti-Human NLRP10 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q86W26

Target Species

Human

Target Name

NLRP10

Target Full Name

NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 10

Target Function

Inhibits autoprocessing of CASP1, CASP1-dependent IL1B secretion, PYCARD aggregation and PYCARD-mediated apoptosis but not apoptosis induced by FAS or BID. Displays anti-inflammatory activity. Required for immunity against C.albicans infection. Involved in the innate immune response by contributing to proinflammatory cytokine release in response to invasive bacterial infection. Contributes to T-cell-mediated inflammatory responses in the skin. Plays a role in protection against periodontitis through its involvement in induction of IL1A via ERK activation in oral epithelial cells infected with periodontal pathogens. Exhibits both ATPase and GTPase activities.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

NLRP family

Target Tissue Specificity

Highly expressed in basal and suprabasal epidermal cell layers with lower levels in dermal fibroblast cells (at protein level). Widely expressed with highest levels in heart, brain and skeletal muscle. Also expressed in liver, colon, dermis and epidermis.

Target Background

Members of the NALP protein family typically contain a NACHT domain, a NACHT-associated domain (NAD), a C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) region, and an N-terminal pyrin domain (PYD). The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the NALP protein family despite lacking the LRR region. This protein likely plays a regulatory role in the innate immune system. The protein belongs to the signal-induced multiprotein complex, the inflammasome, that activates the pro-inflammatory caspases, caspase-1 and caspase-5. Other experiments indicate that this gene acts as a multifunctional negative regulator of inflammation and apoptosis.
