Alternative splicing regulates stochastic NLRP3 activity

Leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains are commonly present in immune regulatory proteins. Here the authors show that LRR exonic modularity and alternative splicing of an LRR-containing protein, NLRP3, modulate the ratio of functional/afunctional NLRP3 isoforms to instill a stochastic regulation of NLRP3...

Sumario:Leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains are commonly present in immune regulatory proteins. Here the authors show that LRR exonic modularity and alternative splicing of an LRR-containing protein, NLRP3, modulate the ratio of functional/afunctional NLRP3 isoforms to instill a stochastic regulation of NLRP3-mediated inflammation and innate immunity.
