Background:

Interferon-inducible protein AIM2 (Absent in melanoma 2) is a 343 amino acid protein belonging to the HIN-200 family. Induced by IFN-?, AIM2 is thought to act as a tumor suppressor by repressing NF?B transcriptional activity. Localized to the nucleus, AIM2 contains one DAPIN domain and one HIN-200 domain. The DAPIN domain is composed mostly of ?-helixes and is a protein-protein interaction domain capable of binding other DAPIN domains. The HIN-200 domain has been shown to bind directly to DNA, which, along with the binding of another protein ASC, results in the activation of Caspase-1.
