Background: NLRP3/NALP3

NALP3 (NAcht, Leucine-rich repeat and PYD domain containing protein 3; also PYPAF1, CIAS1 and CLR1.1) is a cytoplasmic 115-130 kDa member of the NLRP family of molecules. It is selectively expressed, being found in stratified squamous and transitional epithelium, Hassell's corpuscles, neutrophils, dendritic cells and T cells. NALP3 promotes IL-1 beta and IL-18 maturation by activating caspase-1. It does so by forming a NALP3 inflammasome comprised of NALP3, ASC and caspase-1. Bacterial RNA and cell wall peptidoglycan can bind to NALP3, promoting (potentially) ATP binding, NALP3 oligomerization, and caspase activation. Human NALP3 is 1036 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains an N-terminal DAPIN domain (aa 1-93), a NACHT domain (aa 220-536), and seven consecutive LRRs (aa 740-991). Alternate splice forms are reported. Either individually, or in combination, there can be deletions of aa 836-892 or 721-777, and a premature truncation after Gly719 that generates a 70 kDa isoform. Over aa 3-223, human NALP3 shares 76% aa identity with mouse NALP3.
