An indirect mechanism to sense pathogen‐associated activities. DPP8/9 inhibitors, T gondii infection and metabolic inhibitors may induce the same perturbation within cells, which in turn activates an E3 ligase to ubiquitinate and degrade the NLRP1 N‐terminus. In this model, unlike the “decoy” model, NLRP1 indirectly senses pathogen‐associated activities
