    Catalytic activity and autoprocessing of murine caspase-11 mediate noncanonical inflammasome assembly in response to cytosolic LPS

    Daniel C Akuma, Kimberly A Wodzanowski ... Igor E Brodsky
    Caspase-11 catalytic activity and autoprocessing play key roles upstream rather than downstream of its assembly into higher-order inflammasome complexes in response to cytosolic bacterial lipopolysaccharide.
