POP1 might be recruiting its type‐Ia interface for NLRP3‐mediated PYD‐PYD interaction: Insights from MD simulation

Abstract: Inflammasomes are multiprotein caspase-activating complexes that enhance the maturation and release of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-18) in response to the invading pathogen and/or host-derived cellular stress. These are assembled by the sensory proteins (viz NLRC4, NLRP1, NLRP3, and AIM-2), adaptor protein (ASC), and effector molecule procaspase-1. In NLRP3-mediated inflammasome activation, ASC acts as a mediator between NLRP3 and procaspase-1 for the transmission of signals. A series of homotypic p… Show more

“…To observe the self‐association of BcMAVS CARDs , the HuMAVS CARD‐CARD trimer was considered as a template, and a trimeric conformation of the BcMAVS CARD was created using PyMOL (Figure S4). The method and protocol of docking were followed from recent studies on CARD‐CARD interaction …”

“…Thus, the theoretical approaches that include template-assisted molecular modeling, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations are developed for the better understanding of biomolecular machinery and increasingly used to bridge this gap. In recent days, such computational methods have contributed significantly towards the study of the structural and functional aspects of several NLR proteins [6975] and the protein of interest in this study. In 2012, Zurek et al demonstrated the distinct activation mechanism of NOD1 and NOD2 NACHT and revealed that the mutation of WH-His has contrasting effect on NF-κB signaling mechanism [54].…”

“…The effects of inducer binding in sensor domains were surveyed computationally, including NOD1 LRR interactions with IF-DAP [ 46 ], NOD1 and NOD2 CARD with RIP2 [ 163 , 164 ], and NOD2 MDP binding [ 165 ]. The CARD-CARD interactions of NOD2 were also examined [ 165 ], and additional reports on effector domains have included NLRP3-POP1 PYD-PYD interaction dynamics [ 166 ], NLRP1/Caspase-1 CARD-CARD interactions [ 167 ], and the conformational dynamics and fold stability of NLRP PYDs [ 168 ]. In summary, these domains mediate the homotypic interactions critical for the assembly of filamentous NLR inflammasomes.…”
