CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in innate immune response by recognizing cytosolic
CC double-stranded DNA and inducing caspase-1-activating inflammasome
CC formation in macrophages (PubMed:19131592, PubMed:19158675,
CC PubMed:19158676, PubMed:20351692, PubMed:20351693, PubMed:20417169,
CC PubMed:20457908, PubMed:21902795, PubMed:23567559). Upon binding to DNA
CC is thought to undergo oligomerization and to associate with PYCARD
CC initiating the recruitment of caspase-1 precursor and processing of
CC interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-18 (PubMed:19131592,
CC PubMed:19158675, PubMed:19158676, PubMed:20351692, PubMed:20351693,
CC PubMed:20417169, PubMed:20457908, PubMed:21902795, PubMed:23567559).
CC Detects cytosolic dsDNA of viral and bacterial origin in a non-
CC sequence-specific manner (PubMed:19131592, PubMed:19158675,
CC PubMed:20351692, PubMed:23567559). Also acts as a mediator of
CC pyroptosis, necroptosis and apoptosis (PANoptosis), an integral part of
CC host defense against pathogens, in response to bacterial infection
CC (PubMed:34471287). Can also trigger PYCARD-dependent, caspase-1-
CC independent cell death that involves caspase-8 (PubMed:22555457).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19131592, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19158675,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:19158676, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20351692,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20351693, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20417169,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20457908, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21902795,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22555457, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23567559,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:34471287}.
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: In absence of dsDNA pyrin and HIN-20 domain can
CC interact inducing a closed conformation; an autoinhibitory mechanism is
CC proposed in which binding to dsDNA liberates the pyrin domain for
CC homotypic downstream signaling interactions with PYCARD.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O14862}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Self-associates; forms homooligomers in response to cytosolic
CC dsDNA and the dsDNA seems to serve as oligomerization platform (By
CC similarity). Component of the AIM2 inflammasome complex (By
CC similarity). Interacts with PYCARD (By similarity). Interacts with
CC IFI16 (By similarity). Interacts with EIF2AK2/PKR (By similarity).
CC Interacts with PYDC5; disrupts assembly of the ALR inflammasome complex
CC (By similarity). Component of the AIM2 PANoptosome complex, a
CC multiprotein complex that drives inflammatory cell death (PANoptosis)
CC (PubMed:34471287). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O14862,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:34471287}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC Q91VJ1; Q91VJ1: Aim2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-6253384, EBI-6253384;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O14862}. Cytoplasm
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22555457}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The HIN-20 domain mediates dsDNA binding via electrostatic
CC interactions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23567559}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The pyrin domain mediates homotypic interaction with PYCARD.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O14862}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the HIN-200 family. {ECO:0000305}.
