Function

Gasdermin-DPrecursor of a pore-forming protein that plays a key role in host defense against pathogen infection and danger signals (PubMed:26375003, PubMed:26375259, PubMed:27281216). This form constitutes the precursor of the pore-forming protein: upon cleavage, the released N-terminal moiety (Gasdermin-D, N-terminal) binds to membranes and forms pores, triggering pyroptosis (PubMed:26375003, PubMed:26375259, PubMed:27281216).Gasdermin-D, N-terminalPromotes pyroptosis in response to microbial infection and danger signals (PubMed:26375003, PubMed:26375259, PubMed:27418190, PubMed:28392147, PubMed:32820063). Produced by the cleavage of gasdermin-D by inflammatory caspases CASP1, CASP4 or CASP5 in response to canonical, as well as non-canonical (such as cytosolic LPS) inflammasome activators (PubMed:26375003, PubMed:26375259, PubMed:27418190). After cleavage, moves to the plasma membrane where it strongly binds to inner leaflet lipids, including monophosphorylated phosphatidylinositols, such as phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, bisphosphorylated phosphatidylinositols, such as phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate, as well as phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-bisphosphate, and more weakly to phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine (PubMed:27281216, PubMed:29898893). Homooligomerizes within the membrane and forms pores of 10-15 nanometers (nm) of inner diameter, allowing the release of mature IL1B and triggering pyroptosis (PubMed:27418190, PubMed:27281216, PubMed:29898893). Exhibits bactericidal activity (PubMed:27281216). Gasdermin-D, N-terminal released from pyroptotic cells into the extracellular milieu rapidly binds to and kills both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, without harming neighboring mammalian cells, as it does not disrupt the plasma membrane from the outside due to lipid-binding specificity (PubMed:27281216). Under cell culture conditions, also active against intracellular bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes (By similarity). Also active in response to MAP3K7/TAK1 inactivation by Yersinia toxin YopJ, which triggers cleavage by CASP8 and subsequent activation (By similarity). Strongly binds to bacterial and mitochondrial lipids, including cardiolipin (PubMed:27281216). Does not bind to unphosphorylated phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine nor phosphatidylcholine (PubMed:27281216).

Notes

ab255984 is the carrier-free version of Anti-cleaved C-terminal GSDMD antibody [EPR20885-203] ab227821.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Cleaved C-terminal GSDMD also known as cleaved gasdermin D is a protein involved in cellular processes influencing cell death. It is a fragment derived from gasdermin D (GSDMD) after cleavage which is facilitated by inflammatory caspases. This cleavage removes an inhibitory domain allowing the active N-terminal to initiate its functions. The molecular weight of GSDMD is approximately 53 kDa. Cleaved GSDMD is often detected through methods like Western blot particularly in immune cells such as macrophages and monocytes.

Biological function summary

Cleaved C-terminal GSDMD contributes significantly to the process of pyroptosis a form of programmed cell death that is inflammation-driven. This fragmented form is important for forming pores in the cell membrane leading to cellular lysis and the release of pro-inflammatory signals. Gasdermin D including its cleaved form is not known to be part of a large complex on its own but acts autonomously after activation by other proteins like caspase-1.

Pathways

Cleaved C-terminal GSDMD participates actively in the inflammatory response particularly in the inflammasome pathway. The protein is closely linked to caspases like caspase-1 that activate it leading to pyroptotic cell death. This pathway also intersects with other innate immune components such as the NLRP3 inflammasome to magnify inflammatory signals and recruit additional immune cells to sites of infection or damage.

Associated diseases and disorders

Cleaved C-terminal GSDMD plays a role in conditions featuring excessive inflammation like septicemia and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In these diseases aberrant activation and overproduction of cleaved GSDMD can magnify tissue damage through uncontrolled cell death and inflammation. Also in septicemia GSDMD interacts with proteins like caspase-11 which can exacerbate inflammatory cytokine release and worsen the disease course.
