They are thought to protect their host by lysing cells bearing on their surface 'nonself' antigens, usually peptides or proteins resulting from infection by intracellular pathogens. The protein described here is a T cell- and natural killer cell-specific serine protease that may function as a common component necessary for lysis of target cells by cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Abundant protease in the cytosolic granules of cytotoxic T-cells and NK-cells which activates caspase-independent cell death with morphological features of apoptosis when delivered into the target cell through the immunological synapse. It cleaves after Lys or Arg. Cleaves APEX1 after 'Lys-31' and destroys its oxidative repair activity. Cleaves the nucleosome assembly protein SET after 'Lys-189', which disrupts its nucleosome assembly activity and allows the SET complex to translocate into the nucleus to nick and degrade the DNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11555662, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12524539, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12628186, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16818237}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |Trypsin| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |negative regulation of endodeoxyribonuclease activity| |negative regulation of deoxyribonuclease activity| |negative regulation of nuclease activity| |regulation of endodeoxyribonuclease activity| |regulation of deoxyribonuclease activity| |regulation of nuclease activity| |cytolysis| |negative regulation of oxidoreductase activity| |immunological synapse| |negative regulation of DNA binding| |regulation of oxidoreductase activity| |negative regulation of DNA metabolic process| |regulation of DNA binding| |serine-type endopeptidase activity| |negative regulation of binding| |regulation of DNA metabolic process| |regulation of binding| |negative regulation of hydrolase activity| |proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process| |cellular protein catabolic process| |positive regulation of apoptotic process| |positive regulation of programmed cell death| |protein catabolic process| |response to bacterium| |positive regulation of cell death| |negative regulation of catalytic activity| |protein homodimerization activity| |cellular macromolecule catabolic process| |apoptotic process| |macromolecule catabolic process| |programmed cell death| |organonitrogen compound catabolic process| |cell death| |negative regulation of molecular function| |proteolysis| |regulation of hydrolase activity| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |negative regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |regulation of apoptotic process| |regulation of programmed cell death| |regulation of cell death| |organic substance catabolic process| |cellular catabolic process| |immune response| |extracellular region| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='default' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> No hits were found. </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 14664 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -0.28 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='GZMA Expression in NALM6 Cells: -0.28'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
