The encoded protein also mediates inflammatory responses in the colon to allow recovery from intestinal epithelial damage and protects against tumorigenesis and the development of colitis. Finally, this protein can increase activation of NF-kappa-B, activation of CASP1 through interaction with ASC, and cAMP accumulation. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

In response to pathogens and other damage-associated signals, initiates the formation of the inflammasome polymeric complex, made of NLRP6, PYCARD and CASP1 (and possibly CASP4 and CASP5). Recruitment of proCASP1 to the inflammasome promotes its activation and CASP1- catalyzed IL1B and IL18 maturation and secretion in the extracellular milieu. The precise NLRP6 activation stimulus has not been identified yet (By similarity) (PubMed:12387869). Essential for gut mucosal self-renewal and proliferation. Maintains intestinal homeostasis and a healthy intestinal microbiota. This function is, at least partially, mediated by IL18, and not IL1B, produced by nonhematopoietic cells. Influences intestinal barrier function and microbial homeostasis through the regulation of goblet cell mucus secretion. Acts by promoting autophagy in goblet cells, an essential step for mucus granule exocytosis. Its role in goblet cell physiology is inflammasome- dependent, but IL1B- and IL18-independent. During systemic bacterial infections, may negatively regulate inflammatory signaling and inhibit the influx of monocytes and neutrophils to the circulation and to the peritoneum. May promote peripheral nerve recovery following injury via an inflammasome-independent mechanism (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q91WS2, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96P20, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12387869}. <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'> |PAAD DAPIN| |NACHT| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |inflammasome complex| |vasopressin receptor activity| |regulation of mucus secretion| |negative regulation of inflammatory response to antigenic stimulus| |regulation of inflammatory response to antigenic stimulus| |negative regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway| |negative regulation of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB signaling| |negative regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade| |regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway| |negative regulation of inflammatory response| |negative regulation of immune response| |negative regulation of MAPK cascade| |negative regulation of defense response| |regulation of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB signaling| |nuclear membrane| |regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade| |regulation of autophagy| |regulation of inflammatory response| |negative regulation of response to external stimulus| |negative regulation of protein phosphorylation| |negative regulation of immune system process| |negative regulation of phosphorylation| |regulation of innate immune response| |wound healing| |regulation of body fluid levels| |inflammatory response| |negative regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |regulation of response to biotic stimulus| |negative regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |negative regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |response to wounding| |negative regulation of protein modification process| |response to bacterium| |regulation of MAPK cascade| |regulation of defense response| |innate immune response| |regulation of multi-organism process| |regulation of secretion| |regulation of cellular catabolic process| |defense response to other organism| |regulation of catabolic process| |negative regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |regulation of response to external stimulus| |negative regulation of protein metabolic process| |regulation of immune response| |negative regulation of signal transduction| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |response to biotic stimulus| |defense response| |negative regulation of cell communication| |negative regulation of signaling| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |regulation of response to stress| |ATP binding| |regulation of phosphorylation| |negative regulation of response to stimulus| |regulation of immune system process| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |regulation of protein modification process| |regulation of transport| |immune response| </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>**: 13649 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 2.68 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='NLRP6 Expression in NALM6 Cells: 2.68'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
