NLRC3

NLRC3, short for NOD-like receptor family CARD domain containing 3, is an intracellular protein that plays a role in the immune system.^[5] It was previously known as nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine rich repeat and CARD domain containing 3 (NOD3) and CLR16.2. NLRC3 inhibits the activity of T cells.^[6] NLRC3 also inhibits the mTOR signalling pathway to block cellular proliferation.^[7]
