ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD) is a modular protein that functions as an adapter of the inflammasome, a multi-protein complex that triggers the inflammatory response in the presence of infection or cell damage. ASC bridges the inflammasome components (PYD-containing sensors and procaspase 1) via homotypic interactions mediated by its two death domains, PYD and CARD. The self-assembly and oligomerization of multiple copies of these three proteins result in the activation of procaspase 1, in turn rendering different cytokines functional. An in-depth understanding of ASC binding capabilities is crucial to decipher the molecular mechanisms of its role in inflammasome formation. In this chapter, we discuss the use of solution NMR to identify specific interacting surfaces of the inflammasome adapter ASC, and describe detailed protocols to perform NMR titrations with Death Domains to obtain apparent dissociation constants of the resulting complexes. The incorporation of NMR restraints in molecular docking to obtain models of these protein assemblies is presented.
