FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

Also known as NOD1_HUMAN, NOD1, CARD4. Enhances caspase-9-mediated apoptosis. Induces NF-kappa-B activity via RIPK2 and IKK-gamma. Confers responsiveness to intracellular bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Forms an intracellular sensing system along with ARHGEF2 for the detection of microbial effectors during cell invasion by pathogens. Required for RHOA and RIPK2 dependent NF-kappa-B signaling pathway activation upon S.flexneri cell invasion. Involved not only in sensing peptidoglycan (PGN)-derived muropeptides but also in the activation of NF-kappa-B by Shigella effector proteins IpgB2 and OspB. Recruits NLRP10 to the cell membrane following bacterial infection. Homodimer. Self-associates. Binds to caspase-9 and RIPK2 by CARD-CARD interaction. Interacts with ARHGEF2. Interacts with NLRP10 and recruits it to the cell membrane following invasive bacterial infection. Interacts with RNF34.
