Association of pathogenic bacteria proteins drives in turn drive assembly and activation of the NLRC4 inflammasome, promoting caspase-1 activation, cytokine production and macrophage pyroptosis. The NLRC4 inflammasome is activated as part of the innate immune response to a range of intracellular bacteria. The NLRC4 inflammasome senses Gram-negative bacteria such as L.pneumophila and P.aeruginosa, enteric pathogens S.typhimurium (Salmonella) and S.flexneri. Prevents motor-neuron apoptosis induced by a variety of signals. Publication Abstract from PubMed The NAIP (NLR family apoptosis inhibitory protein)/NLRC4 (NLR family CARD containing protein 4) inflammasome senses Gram-negative bacterial ligand. In the ligand-bound state, the winged helix domain of NAIP forms a steric clash with NLRC4 to open it up. However, how ligand binding activates NAIP is less clear. Here, we investigated the dynamics of the ligand-binding region of inactive NAIP5 and solved the cryo-EM structure of NAIP5 in complex with its specific ligand, FliC from flagellin, at 2.9-A resolution. The structure revealed a "trap and lock" mechanism in FliC recognition, whereby FliC-D0(C) is first trapped by the hydrophobic pocket of NAIP5, then locked in the binding site by ID (insertion domain) and C-terminal tail of NAIP5. The FliC-D0(N) domain further inserts into ID to stabilize the complex. According to this mechanism, FliC triggers the conformational change of NAIP5 by bringing multiple flexible domains together.
