- Background
- Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1, also known as CARD4, is a protein receptor that in humans is encoded by the NOD1 gene. NOD1 is a member of NOD-like receptor protein family and is a close relative of NOD2. NOD1 is mapped to 7p14.3. It recognizes bacterial molecules and stimulates an immune reaction. NOD1 protein contains a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) . This gene is an intracellular pattern recognition receptor, which is similar in structure to resistant proteins of plants, and mediates innate and acquired immunity by recognizing bacterial molecules containing D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid (iE-DAP) moiety. What wore, it has been shown that NOD1 can sense cytosolic microbial products by monitoring the activation state of small Rho GTPases.

- Function
- Enhances caspase-9-mediated apoptosis. Induces NF-kappa- B activity via RIPK2 and IKK-gamma. Confers responsiveness to intracellular bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) . Forms an intracellular sensing system along with ARHGEF2 for the detection of microbial effectors during cell invasion by pathogens. Required for RHOA and RIPK2 dependent NF-kappa-B signaling pathway activation upon S.flexneri cell invasion. Involved not only in sensing peptidoglycan (PGN) -derived muropeptides but also in the activation of NF-kappa-B by Shigella effector proteins IpgB2 and OspB. Recruits NLRP10 to the cell membrane following bacterial infection. .
