Scope and Contents

Contents

Cytosolic DNA induces type I interferon via activation of STING; the immediate STING activator is produced by the recently identified DNA sensor cGAS and is shown here to be an unorthodox cyclic dinucleotide harbouring a 2′-5′ linkage between guanosine and adenosine.
DNA sensing by cGAS
The mechanism of sensing and signalling of cytosolic DNA...
