Nlrp2 - NLR family, pyrin domain containing 2

Predicted to enable several functions, including Pyrin domain binding activity; aspartic-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity; and caspase binding activity. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and cytosol. Predicted to colocalize with chromosome, telomeric region. Is expressed in early conceptus and gonad. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gestational trophoblastic neoplasm. Orthologous to several human genes including NLRP2 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 2).
