Protein: Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (Caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 15) (Q8K3Z0)
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Pattern recognition receptor (PRR) that detects bacterial peptidoglycan fragments and other danger signals and plays an important role in gastrointestinal immunity. Upon stimulation by muramyl dipeptide (MDP), a fragment of bacterial peptidoglycan, binds the proximal adapter receptor-interacting RIPK2, which recruits ubiquitin ligases as XIAP, BIRC2, BIRC3, INAVA and the LUBAC complex, triggering activation of MAP kinases and activation of NF-kappa-B signaling. This in turn leads to the transcriptional activation of hundreds of genes involved in immune response. Required for MDP-induced NLRP1-dependent CASP1 activation and IL1B release in macrophages. Component of an autophagy-mediated antibacterial pathway together with ATG16L1. Also plays a role in sensing single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) from viruses. Interacts with mitochondrial antiviral signaling/MAVS, leading to activation of interferon regulatory factor-3/IRF3 and expression of type I interferon. Besides recognizing pathogens, participates in surveillance of cellular homeostasis through sensing and binding to the cytosolic metabolite sphingosine-1-phosphate and then initating inflammation process.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}. Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}. Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}. Note=Palmitoylation promotes localization to the cell membrane, where it detects bacterial invasion at the point of entry. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HC29}.
