Summary: Enables identical protein binding activity and protein dimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cellular component organization; positive regulation of cytokine production; and regulation of defense response. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including defense response to Gram-positive bacterium; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of autophagy. Located in cytosol; extracellular region; and nucleus. Part of NLRP6 inflammasome complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; heart; hemolymphoid system gland; and urinary system. Orthologous to human PYCARD (PYD and CARD domain containing).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
