Granzyme B also known as GZMB GB11 or granzyme B protein is a serine protease with a molecular mass of approximately 32 kDa. It is expressed mainly in cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells. This enzyme plays a mechanical role in inducing apoptosis in target cells serving as an effector protein in the immune system's defense against virally infected cells or transformed cancer cells. The activity of granzyme B relies on its ability to cleave after aspartate residues in substrate proteins leading to the activation of apoptotic pathways.
Biological function summary

Granzyme B participates prominently in the immune response by activating caspases particularly caspase-3 which promotes the breakdown of cellular components necessary for apoptosis. Granzyme B does not function in isolation but acts in concert with other immune system factors such as perforin to effectively induce cell death. Perforin creates pores in the target cell membrane allowing granzyme B to enter and instigate the apoptosis sequence. The enzyme also contributes to the processing of cytokines which enhances the immune response further.

Pathways

Studies have determined that granzyme B is critical in the apoptosis pathway particularly in the granule exocytosis pathway. It closely interacts with proteins such as perforin and other granzymes to mediate apoptosis in target cells. Granzyme B also plays a role in the inflammatory response and can influence pathways associated with cytotoxic T cell signaling. Its pathway interactions ensure effective elimination of damaged or infected cells maintaining tissue homeostasis.

Granzyme B has associations with autoimmune diseases and cancer. Abnormally high levels of granzyme B can contribute to tissue damage and inflammation in autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. In the context of cancer granzyme B aids in tumor surveillance and destruction when functioning correctly but impaired granzyme B activity can lead to evasion of immune detection by cancerous cells. Perforin also plays a role in these conditions closely working with granzyme B to either protect against or drive disease progression.

General info

Function

Abundant protease in the cytosolic granules of cytotoxic T-cells and NK-cells which activates caspase-independent pyroptosis when delivered into the target cell through the immunological synapse (PubMed : 1985927, PubMed : 3262682, PubMed : 3263427). It cleaves after Asp (PubMed : 1985927, PubMed : 8258716). Once delivered into the target cell, acts by catalyzing cleavage of gasdermin-E (GSDME), releasing the pore-forming moiety of GSDME, thereby triggering pyroptosis and target cell death (PubMed : 31953257, PubMed : 32188940). Seems to be linked to an activation cascade of caspases (aspartate-specific cysteine proteases) responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves caspase-3, -9 and -10 (CASP3, CASP9 and CASP10, respectively) to give rise to active enzymes mediating apoptosis (PubMed : 9852092). Cleaves and activates CASP7 in response to bacterial infection, promoting plasma membrane repair (By similarity).
