Summary: Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of interleukin-1 beta production; pyroptotic inflammatory response; and response to bacterium. Acts upstream of or within regulation of apoptotic process and regulation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic process. Located in cytosol. Part of IPAF inflammasome complex. Used to study familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 4. Orthologous to human NLRC4 (NLR family CARD domain containing 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
