About NLRP9

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.42 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:55,708,438-55,738,402 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 77 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Biased expression in prostate (RPKM 1.0), testis (RPKM 0.4) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the NALP protein family. Members of the NALP protein family typically contain a NACHT domain, a NACHT-associated domain (NAD), a C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) region, and an N-terminal pyrin domain (PYD). This protein may play a regulatory role in the innate immune system as similar family members belong to the signal-induced multiprotein complex, the inflammasome, that activates the pro-inflammatory caspases, Caspase-1 and caspase-5.
