Describe the effect of inhibiting step 3 on the formation of pores AND on the release of interleukin from

the cell.

- Pores will not form.

- Interleukin release will not be affected/interleukin release continues.

Explanation:

By inhibiting step 3, the cleaving of gasdermin by capase - 1 will prevent the combining of gasdermin proteins and the formation of pores in the cell membrane. This will not impact the release of interlukin. At this step, interlukin does not require the pores to leave the cell. They are made in step 2.
