GBP5

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: GBP5
  • Official Name: guanylate binding protein 5
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 115362
  • UniProt: Q96PP8
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. The encoded protein acts as an activator of NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and has a role in innate immunity and inflammation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017].
  • UniProt Summary: As an activator of NLRP3 inflammasome assembly, plays a role in innate immunity and inflammation. Promotes selective NLRP3 inflammasome assembly in response to microbial and soluble, but not crystalline, agents (PubMed:22461501). Hydrolyzes GTP, but in contrast to other family members, does not produce GMP (PubMed:20180847). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20180847, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22461501}.
