NLRP6

NLRP6, short for is_associated_with::NOD-like receptor family is_associated_with::pyrin domain containing 6, is an is_associated_with::intracellular protein that plays a role in the is_associated_with::immune system. It is also known as NALP6, PYPAF5, PAN3, and CLR11.4, and is one of 14 pyrin domain containing members of the NOD-like receptor family of is_associated_with::pattern recognition receptors. As with several other NOD-like receptors, NLRP6's role in immunity is related to its ability to regulate is_associated_with::caspase-1 and is_associated_with::NF-κB activity.
