NLRP2/NALP2 Recombinant Protein Antigen

NLRP2/NALP2, aka PAN1 and PYPAF2, belongs to a cytoplasmic proteins family containing a NACHT domain, leucine rich repeat (NLR) and N-terminal pyrin-containing domain (PYD). As an intracellular pathogen-recognition receptors (PRRs), NLRP2/NALP2 is a 1062 amino acid protein associated in cell responses to apoptotic and inflammatory stimuli. PRRs are key components of immune systems involving in an innate effector mechanisms and activation of adaptive immunity. By interacting with ASC in addition to CARD8 and caspase 1, NLRP2/NALP2 forms an inflammasome functioning as a modulator of NF-kB and procaspase-1 activation in macrophages. Similar to TLRs, activation of the inflammasome by NLRs occurs through the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) through their LRR domains. NLRP2/NALP2 expressions varies in several human tumor cell lines though the highest were found in MDA-MB-435 and MCF-7 breast cancer, UACC62 melanoma, and Caco2 colon cancer cells.
