TBK1, a central kinase in innate immune sensing of nucleic acids and beyond

Abstract excerpt

Sensing of intracellular and extracellular environments is one of the fundamental processes of cell. Surveillance of aberrant nucleic acids, derived either from invading pathogens or damaged organelle, is conducted by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) including RIG-I-like receptors, cyclic GMP-AMP synthase, absent in melanoma 2, and a few members of toll-like receptors. TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), along with...
