| Gene Symbol | AIM2 |
| Gene Full Name | absent in melanoma 2 |
| Background | AIM2 is a member of the IFI20X /IFI16 family. It plays a putative role in tumorigenic reversion and may control cell proliferation. Interferon-gamma induces expression of AIM2. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
| Function | Involved in innate immune response by recognizing cytosolic double-stranded DNA and inducing caspase-1-activating inflammasome formation in macrophages. Upon binding to DNA is thought to undergo oligomerization and to associate with PYCARD initiating the recruitment of caspase-1 precusrsor and processing of interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-18. Detects cytosolic dsDNA of viral and bacterial origin in a non-sequence-specific manner. Can also trigger PYCARD-dependent, caspase-1-independent cell death that involves caspase-8 (By similarity). Tumor suppressor which may act by repressing NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Activated inflammasomes can aggregate in the cytosol as speck-like particles. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 39 kDa |
