Background: Interferon-inducible protein AIM2,also known asabsent in melanoma 2or simplyAIM2,is aproteinthat in humans is encoded by theAIM2gene. It is mapped to 1q22. AIM2 is a member of theIfi202/IFI16family. It plays a putative role in tumorigenic reversion and may control cell proliferation.Interferon-gammainduces expression of AIM2. Though there has been virtually no biochemistry performed, a model based on cell-based or in vivo experiments has led to the current model of how AIM2 triggers the inflammasome. The C-terminal HIN domain binds double stranded DNA(either viral, bacterial, or even host) and acts as a cytosolic dsDNA sensor. This leads to the oligomerization of the inflammasome complex. The N-terminal pyrin domain of AIM2 interacts with the pyrin domain of another proteinASC(or Apoptosis-associated Speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain). ASC also contains aCARD domain(caspase activation and recruitment domain), that recruits procaspase-1 to the complex. This leads to the autoactivation ofcaspase-1, an enzyme that processes proinflammatorycytokines(IL-1bandIL-18).
