NLRP11
Encyclopedia
NLRP11, short for NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain
containing 11, is an intracellular
protein of mammals. It is also known as NALP11, PYPAF6, NOD17, PAN10, and CLR19.6, and is one of 14 pyrin domain containing members of the NOD-like receptor family of cytoplasm
ic receptors. The function of NLRP11 is currently unknown.
