NLRP5 , short for NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 5, is an intracellular protein that plays a role in early embryogenesis .[ 5] [ 6] NLRP5 is also known as NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 5 (NALP5), Mater protein homolog (MATER), PYPAF8, PAN11, and CLR19.8, and is one of 14 pyrin domain containing members of the NOD-like receptor family of cytoplasmic receptors known to mammals .
In humans, the NLRP5 protein is encoded by the NLRP5 gene .[ 7] [ 8] [ 9]
