Description
Effector protein that binds to the host serine protease cathepsin G on the macrophage cell membrane, inhibiting its enzymatic activity and the downstream activation of caspase-1-dependent apoptosis. Thus prevents macrophage pyroptosis and helps M.tuberculosis survival within host cells.
Family
Belongs to the mycobacterial serine protease inhibitor Rv3364c family.
