Function
Thiol protease that acts as a mediator of programmed cell death (PubMed : 28314590, PubMed : 29898893). Initiates pyroptosis, a programmed lytic cell death pathway through cleavage of Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) : cleavage releases the N-terminal gasdermin moiety (Gasdermin-D, N-terminal) that binds to membranes and forms pores, triggering pyroptosis (PubMed : 29898893). Also mediates cleavage and maturation of IL18 (PubMed : 37993714). Cleavage of GSDMD and IL18 is not strictly dependent on the consensus cleavage site but depends on an exosite interface on CASP4 (PubMed : 37993714). During non-canonical inflammasome activation, cuts CGAS and may play a role in the regulation of antiviral innate immune activation (PubMed : 28314590).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.
Post-translational modifications
The two subunits are derived from the precursor sequence by an autocatalytic mechanism.
