NLRP5

NLRP5, short for is_associated_with::NOD-like receptor family is_associated_with::pyrin domain containing 5, is an is_associated_with::intracellular protein that plays a role in early is_associated_with::embryogenesis. NLRP5 is also known as NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 5 (NALP5), Mater protein homolog (MATER), PYPAF8, PAN11, and CLR19.8, and is one of 14 pyrin domain containing members of the NOD-like receptor family of is_associated_with::cytoplasmic receptors known to is_associated_with::mammals.

In humans, the NLRP5 protein is encoded by the NLRP5 is_associated_with::gene.
