Target Function
Involved in the regulation of innate immunity and the inflammatory response in response to IFNG/IFN-gamma. Organizes autophagic machinery by serving as a platform for the assembly of ULK1, Beclin 1/BECN1, ATG16L1, and ATG8 family members and recognizes specific autophagy targets, thus coordinating target recognition with assembly of the autophagic apparatus and initiation of autophagy. Acts as an autophagy receptor for the degradation of several inflammasome components, including CASP1, NLRP1 and NLRP3, hence preventing excessive IL1B- and IL18-mediated inflammation. However, it can also have a positive effect in the inflammatory pathway, acting as an innate immune sensor that triggers PYCARD/ASC specks formation, caspase-1 activation, and IL1B and IL18 production. It is required for PSTPIP1-induced PYCARD/ASC oligomerization and inflammasome formation. Recruits PSTPIP1 to inflammasomes, and is required for PSTPIP1 oligomerization.
Target Involvement
Familial Mediterranean fever, autosomal recessive (ARFMF); Familial Mediterranean fever, autosomal dominant (ADFMF)
Target Subcellular Location
[Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, ruffle. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome. Note=Associated with microtubules and with the filamentous actin of perinuclear filaments and peripheral lamellar ruffles. In pre-apoptotic cells, colocalizes with PYCARD/ASC in large specks (inflammasomes). In migrating monocytes, strongly polarized at the leading edge of the cell where it colocalizes with polymerizing actin and PYCARD/ASC.; [Isoform 2]: Nucleus.
Target Tissue Specificity
Expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes, particularly in mature granulocytes and to a lesser extent in monocytes but not in lymphocytes. Detected in spleen, lung and muscle, probably as a result of leukocyte infiltration in these tissues. Not expressed i
