[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/RCD11_NEUCR RCD11_NEUCR] Gasdermin-like protein involved in heterokaryon incompatibility, a process that ensures that during spontaneous vegetative cell fusion, only compatible cells from the same colony survive (non-self-recognition) (PubMed:31636083, PubMed:32703806). In N.crassa, the rcd-1 locus exists as 2 incompatible alleles, rcd-1-1 (this entry) and rcd-1-2 (AC P0DW10) (PubMed:31636083). During the allorecognition process, forms a heterooligomer with rcd-1-2, thereby forming a functional gasdermin-like complex that binds to membranes and forms pores, triggering cell death (PubMed:32703806).

| + | Gasdermins (GSDMs) are pore-forming proteins that execute pyroptosis for immune defense. GSDMs are two-domain proteins, activated by proteolytic removal of the inhibitory domain. Here we report two types of cleavage-independent GSDM activation. First, TrichoGSDM, a pore-forming-domain-only protein from the basal metazoan Trichoplax adhaerens, is a disulfides-linked autoinhibited dimer, activated by reduction of the disulfides. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure illustrates assembly mechanism for the 44-mer TrichoGSDM pore. Second, RCD-1-1/RCD-1-2, encoded by polymorphic rcd-1 in filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa, are also pore-forming-domain-only GSDMs. RCD-1-1 and RCD-1-2, when encountering each other, form pores and cause pyroptosis, underlying allorecognition in Neurospora. Cryo-EM structure reveals a pore of 11 RCD-1-1/RCD-1-2 heterodimers and heterodimerization-triggered pore assembly mechanism. This study shows mechanistic diversities in GSDM activation and indicates versatile functions of GSDMs. | ||
