Definition
English
:
A tripartite motif protein that consists of an N-terminal
pyrin domain
, a central coiled-coil region and B-box type ZINC
FINGER
, and C-terminal regions that mediate homotrimerization and interactions with other
proteins
(the B30.2/SPRY DOMAIN). It is expressed primarily by mature
GRANULOCYTES
and associates with the
cytoskeleton
in the perinuclear area as well as
AUTOPHAGOSOMES
, where it co-ordinates the assembly of
AUTOPHAGY-RELATED PROTEINS
and degradation of INFLAMMASOME components. It functions in INNATE
IMMUNITY
and
INFLAMMATION
;
mutations
in the Pyrin protein (MEFV) gene are associated with
FAMILIAL MEDITERRANEAN FEVER.
