A377D mutant of full length Gasdermin D

Pyroptosis is a form of lytic programmed cell death with inflammation. Recent studies reported that N-terminal of Gasdermin D (BBa K2632003) acts as an effector of pyroptosis1<./sup>. Full length Gasdermin D is cleaved by Caspase 1 and then release the PFD (pore-forming domain) which can oligomerize on the cell membrane. Formation of pores causes cell to swell, leading to rupture of the membrane and massive leakage of cytosolic contents. A377D mutation of full length Gasdermin D reduces the cell toxicity.
