Ipaf (also known as Clan/CARD12) is a CARD domain containing protein. In general CARD proteins are implicated in host defense against infection, environmental stress or cellular damage. CARD domains are found in the N-terminal pro-domains of certain caspases, a family of apoptotic and pro-inflammatory proteases, as well as in a diversity of other proteins including Ipaf/Clan/CARD12. There are at least three major signaling pathways in which CARD proteins act: (1) Regulation of caspase activation in the context of apoptosis (2) Regulation of caspase activation in the context of inflammation (3) Regaultion of NF-kB activation in the context of innate or adaptive immune responses. As there is significant crosstalk between pathways that lead to caspase-mediated apoptosis or inflammation and pathways that result in NF-kB activation, it is logical that similar protein modules such as CARD domains are found repeatedly in proteins from all three pathways. Ipaf plays a role in regulating caspase-1 activity, which in turn mediates the maturation of inflammatory cytokines IL-1b and IL-18. Ipaf also interact with the pro-apoptotic adaptor protein ASC and co-expression of Ipaf with ASC has been shown to induce NF-kB activation and apoptosis.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic/therapeutics procedures.
Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm, Cytoplasm |
Post transnational modification: | Phosphorylated at Ser-533 following infection of macrophages with S.typhimurium (Salmonella). Phosphorylation is essential for NLRC4 inflammasome function to promote caspase-1 activation and pyroptosis. PRKCD phosphorylates Ser-533 in vitro (By similarity). |
Tissue Specificity: | Isoform 2 is expressed ubiquitously, although highly expressed in lung and spleen. Isoform 1 is highly expressed in lung, followed by leukocytes especially monocytes, lymph node, colon, brain, prostate, placenta, spleen, bone marrow and fetal liver. Isoform 4 is only detected in brain. |
