CASP12
gene geneOn this page
Summary
CASP12 (caspase 12 (gene/pseudogene), HGNC:19004) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q22.3, encoding Inactive caspase-12 (Q6UXS9). May function as a negative regulator of inflammatory responses and innate immunity.
Caspases are cysteine proteases that cleave C-terminal aspartic acid residues on their substrate molecules. This gene is most highly related to members of the ICE subfamily of caspases that process inflammatory cytokines. In rodents, the homolog of this gene mediates apoptosis in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. However, in humans this gene contains a polymorphism for the presence or absence of a premature stop codon. The majority of human individuals have the premature stop codon and produce a truncated non-functional protein. The read-through codon occurs primarily in individuals of African descent and carriers have endotoxin hypo-responsiveness and an increased susceptibility to severe sepsis. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been noted for this gene.

Inactive caspase-12 — Q6UXS9 (reviewed: Q6UXS9)
All UniProt accessions (1): Q6UXS9
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. May function as a negative regulator of inflammatory responses and innate immunity. May reduce cytokine release in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide during infection. Reduces activation of NF-kappa-B in response to TNF. May lack protease activity.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed, with highest levels in lung.
Polymorphism. The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a nonsense variant creating stop codon at position 125 in the reference genome, giving rise to a truncated protein (Csp12-S). The sequence shown in this entry is that of variant p.Ter125Arg. This variant gives rise to a full length protein (Csp12-L). It occurs in the human population at a frequence of about 4% according to the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v3.1.2), with highest frequency observed in people of African descent (up to 60% in certain sub-Saharan populations). Csp12-L expression may increase the susceptibility to severe sepsis, and may result in higher mortality rates (up to 3-fold) once severe sepsis develop.
Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.

ChEMBL bioactivities
1 potent at pChembl≥5 of 1 total, top 1 by pChembl (potency: 10 = 0.1 nM, 6 = 1 µM).
| pChembl | Type | Value | Unit | Molecule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.80 | EC50 | 16 | nM | CHEMBL1091826 |
PubChem BioAssay actives
1 with measured affinity, of 2 total; 1 most potent distinct compounds. Largely complementary to BindingDB; screening values are coarse (µM, 4 dp), so sub-nM hits tie at the floor.
| Compound | Assay | Type | Value | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
