HERC5-catalyzed ISGylation potentiates cGAS-mediated innate immunity
2023-01-03
Abstract excerpt
The key cytosolic DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthetase (cGAS) is essential to elicit anti-infection innate immunity whereas aberrant activation of cGAS by endogenous DNA promotes severe autoimmune diseases, thus the activity of cGAS must be strictly regulated to maintain immune homeostasis. Here we report that the E3 ISG15-protein ligase HERC5 interacts with and catalyzes the cGAS ISGylation robustly, wher...
