Enables

This protein enables 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
cysteine-type endopeptidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which the sulfhydryl group of a cysteine residue at the active center acts as a nucleophile. [GOC:mah, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#CATTYPE, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#ENDOPEPTIDASE]

Located In

This protein is located in 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
endoplasmic reticulumcellular componentThe irregular network of unit membranes, visible only by electron microscopy, that occurs in the cytoplasm of many eukaryotic cells. The membranes form a complex meshwork of tubular channels, which are often expanded into slitlike cavities called cisternae. The ER takes two forms, rough (or granular), with ribosomes adhering to the outer surface, and smooth (with no ribosomes attached). [ISBN:0198506732]

Active In

This protein is active in 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
cytoplasmcellular componentThe contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. [ISBN:0198547684]

Part Of

This protein is part of 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
NLRP1 inflammasome complexcellular componentAn inflammasome complex that consists of two components, NLRP1 (NALP1) and caspase-1 or caspase-5. The exact mechanisms of NLRP1 activation remain obscure, but potassium ion efflux appears to be essential. [GOC:add, GOC:BHF, GOC:vp, PMID:20303873]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 3 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
proteolysisbiological processThe hydrolysis of proteins into smaller polypeptides and/or amino acids by cleavage of their peptide bonds. [GOC:bf, GOC:mah]
positive regulation of neuron apoptotic processbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell death of neurons by apoptotic process. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:mtg_apoptosis]
positive regulation of inflammatory responsebiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the inflammatory response. [GOC:ai]
