Function
COPC_CHRVO ADP-riboxanase effector that inhibits host cell pyroptosis (PubMed:34671164). Acts by mediating arginine ADP-riboxanation of host CASP4/CASP11, blocking CASP4/CASP11 autoprocessing (PubMed:34671164). This prevents CASP4 activation and ability to recognize and cleave GSDMD, thereby inhibiting LPS-induced pyroptosis (PubMed:34671164). ADP-riboxanation takes place in two steps: CopC first catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of target Arg, and then initiates a deamination to remove one N-omega group (By similarity).[UniProtKB:A0A0H2US87][1]
