ADAR1 interaction with Z-RNA promotes editing of endogenous double-stranded RNA and prevents MDA5-dependent immune activation

2020-12-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Loss-of-function of ADAR1 causes the severe autoinflammatory disease Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome (AGS). ADAR1 converts adenosines into inosines within double-stranded (ds) RNA. This process called A-to-I editing masks self-dsRNA from detection by the antiviral dsRNA sensor MDA5. ADAR1 binds to dsRNA in both the canonical A-form and in the poorly defined Z-conformation (Z-RNA). Mutations in the Z-R...
