== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/AIM2_MOUSE AIM2_MOUSE] 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.<ref>PMID:19158676</ref> <ref>PMID:19158675</ref> <ref>PMID:19131592</ref> <ref>PMID:20417169</ref> <ref>PMID:20351693</ref> <ref>PMID:20351692</ref> <ref>PMID:20457908</ref> <ref>PMID:22555457</ref> <ref>PMID:21902795</ref>
