The Death-domain Fold of the ASC PYRIN Domain, Presenting a Basis for PYRIN/PYRIN Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2003
The PYRIN domain is a conserved sequence motif identified in more than 20 human proteins with putative functions in apoptotic and inflammatory signalling pathways. The three-dimensional structure of the PYRIN domain from human ASC was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The structure determination reveals close structural similarity to death domains, death

The effect of colchicine on pyrin and pyrin interacting proteins

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2012
AbstractMEFV which encodes pyrin, cause familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), the most common auto‐inflammatory disease. Pyrin is believed to be a regulator of inflammation, though the nature of this regulatory activity remains to be identified.

CDC42 regulates PYRIN inflammasome assembly [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
The PYRIN inflammasome pathway is part of the innate immune response against invading pathogens. Unprovoked continuous activation of the PYRIN inflammasome drives autoinflammation and underlies several autoinflammatory diseases, including familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) syndrome.

Recent Insights in Pyrin Inflammasome Activation: Identifying Potential Novel Therapeutic Approaches in Pyrin-Associated Autoinflammatory Syndromes

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Immunology, 2023
Pyrin is a cytosolic protein encoded by the MEFV gene, predominantly expressed in innate immune cells. Upon activation, it forms an inflammasome, a multimolecular complex that enables the activation and secretion of IL-1β and IL-18. In addition, the Pyrin inflammasome activates Gasdermin D leading to pyroptosis, a highly pro-inflammatory cell death ...

Inducing Pyroptosis Via the Pyrin Inflammasome

2023
The pyrin inflammasome detects bacterial toxins and effectors that inhibit RhoA GTPases and triggers inflammatory cytokine release and a fast cell death termed pyroptosis. In addition, various endogenous molecules, drugs, synthetic molecules, or mutations can trigger pyrin inflammasome activation.
