Overview

CARD14 (Caspase Recruitment Domain Family Member 14), also known as CARMA2, is a scaffolding protein that plays a critical role in [NF-κB](/entities/nf-kb) signaling pathways[@jordaan2020]. Originally identified as a regulator of T cell activation, CARD14 has emerged as an important player in neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases through its regulation of inflammatory gene expression[@chen2022].

Molecular Function

Scaffold Protein Activity

CARD14 functions primarily as a molecular scaffold that assembles signaling complexes:

  • Coiled-coil domain: Mediates homomeric and heteromeric interactions with other CARD-containing proteins
  • CARD domain: Caspase recruitment domain for apoptotic and inflammatory signaling
  • MAGUK domain: Provides scaffolding for membrane-associated signaling complexes
