Function | Adapter protein that plays a key role in adaptive immune response by transducing the activation of NF-kappa-B downstream of T- cell receptor (TCR) and B-cell receptor (BCR) engagement (PubMed:11278692, PubMed:11356195, PubMed:12356734). Transduces signals downstream TCR or BCR activation via the formation of a multiprotein complex together with BCL10 and MALT1 that induces NF-kappa-B and MAP kinase p38 (MAPK11, MAPK12, MAPK13 and/or MAPK14) pathways (PubMed:11356195). Upon activation in response to TCR or BCR triggering, CARD11 homooligomerizes to form a nucleating helical template that recruits BCL10 via CARD-CARD interaction, thereby promoting polymerization of BCL10 and subsequent recruitment of MALT1: this leads to I-kappa-B kinase (IKK) phosphorylation and degradation, and release of NF-kappa-B proteins for nuclear translocation (PubMed:24074955). Its binding to DPP4 induces T-cell proliferation and NF-kappa-B activation in a T-cell receptor/CD3-dependent manner (PubMed:17287217). Promotes linear ubiquitination of BCL10 by promoting the targeting of BCL10 to RNF31/HOIP (PubMed:27777308). Stimulates the phosphorylation of BCL10 (PubMed:11356195). Also activates the TORC1 signaling pathway (PubMed:28628108). |

Background
CARMA1 Antibody: CARMA proteins belong to the membrane-associated guanylate kinase-like (MAGUK) family of proteins that can function as molecular scaffolds that assist assembly of signal transduction molecules. CARMA1, CARMA2, and CARMA3 share high degrees of sequence and functional homology, but their tissue-specific distribution suggests that they serve distinct biological functions in different cell types. Both CARMA1 and CARMA3 associate with NEMO, the regulatory subunit of the IκK complex, thereby regulating activation of the NF-κB transcription factor. Also, gene inactivation studies showed a complete block in T and B cell immunity as well as an impaired response to LPS, indicating that CARMA1 is a critical regulator in both the adaptive and innate immune systems.
