Interruption of post-Golgi STING trafficking activates tonic interferon signaling

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Activation of the cGAS-STING pathway is traditionally considered a “trigger-release” mechanism where detection of microbial DNA or cyclic di-nucleotides sets off the type I interferon response. Whether this pathway can be activated without pathogenic ligand exposure is less well understood. Here we show that loss of Golgi-to-lysosome STING cofactors, but not ER-to-Golgi cofactors, selectively activates...
