Description

PGLYRP1 encodes peptidoglycan recognition protein 1, a member of the peptidoglycan recognition protein (PGRP) family. This protein is involved in innate immunity by binding to bacterial peptidoglycan and triggering antibacterial responses. It is primarily expressed in neutrophils and plays a role in host defense against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.1A>G (p.Met1?) Missense <0.01% Likely loss of start codon; predicted loss of function
c.214C>T (p.Arg72Cys) Missense <0.01% May affect peptidoglycan binding; uncertain significance
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Mutations disrupting the start codon or peptidoglycan-binding domain are predicted to reduce or abolish antibacterial activity.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Protein Summary

PGLYRP1 is a 196-amino acid secreted protein containing a single peptidoglycan-binding domain (PGRP domain). It is stored in neutrophil granules and released upon activation. The protein directly binds bacterial peptidoglycan, inducing bacterial cell wall damage and promoting phagocytosis. It also modulates inflammatory responses by interacting with pattern recognition receptors.
