NLRX1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the NLR family and localizes to the outer mitochondrial membrane. The encoded protein is a regulator of mitochondrial antivirus responses. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013], function:Participates in antiviral signaling. Acts as a negative regulator of MAVS-mediated antiviral responses, through the inhibition of the virus-induced RLH (RIG-like helicase) -MAVS interaction (PubMed:18200010) . Has no inhibitory function on NF-Kappa-B and type 1 interferon signaling pathways, but enhances NF-Kappa-B and JUN N-terminal kinase dependent signaling through the production of reactive oxygen species (PubMed:18219313) ., sequence caution:Translated as Trp., sequence caution:Translation N-terminally extended., similarity:Belongs to the NLRP family., similarity:Contains 1 NACHT domain., similarity:Contains 4 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats., subunit:Interacts with MAVS., tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed. Strongest expression in mammary gland, heart and muscle. Detected in HELA, 293T, THP-1, HL60, RAJI, and JURKAT cell lines (at protein level) .

NLR family member X1 (Caterpiller protein 11.3; CLR11.3; Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain protein 26; Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain protein 5; Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain protein 9)
