About CARD8

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:48,179,825-48,255,946 (from NCBI)

This gene has 31 transcripts (splice variants), 96 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Broad expression in spleen (RPKM 13.6), lymph node (RPKM 11.5) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Caspase recruitment domain (CARD)-containing family of proteins, which are involved in pathways leading to activation of caspases or nuclear factor kappa-B (NFKB). This protein may be a component of the inflammasome, a protein complex that plays a role in the activation of proinflammatory caspases. It is thought that this protein acts as an adaptor molecule that negatively regulates NFKB activation, CASP1-dependent IL1B secretion, and Apoptosis. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with a susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene.
