CARD16

CARD16 (Caspase Recruitment Domain Family Member 16) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Toll-like receptor signaling pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include cysteine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. An important paralog of this gene is CARD17.

caspase recruitment domain family member 16

Caspase inhibitor. Acts as a regulator of procaspase-1/CASP1 activation implicated in the regulation of the proteolytic maturation of pro-interleukin-1 beta (IL1B) and its release during inflammation. Inhibits the release of IL1B in response to LPS in monocytes. Also induces NF-kappa-B activation during the pro-inflammatory cytokine response. Also able to inhibit CASP1-mediated neuronal cell death, TNF-alpha, hypoxia-, UV-, and staurosporine-mediated cell death but not ER stress-mediated cell death. Acts by preventing activation of caspases CASP1 and CASP4, possibly by preventing the interaction between CASP1 and RIPK2.
