Proximity labeling reveals OTUD3 as a DNA-binding deubiquitinase of cGAS
Summary: Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), as the major DNA sensor, initiates DNA-stimulated innate immune responses and is essential for a healthy immune system.

Role of the cGAS–STING pathway in systemic and organ-specific diseases
Cells are equipped with numerous sensors that recognize nucleic acids, which probably evolved for defence against viruses. Once triggered, these sensors stimulate the production of type I interferons and other cytokines that activate immune cells and ...

cGAS Dimerization Entangles DNA Recognition [PDF]
Detection of foreign DNA in the cell cytosol triggers potent antiviral responses. In this issue of Immunity, Li et al. (2013) provide new structural and biochemical data indicating that a cytosolic DNA sensor, cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), is activated by DNA-induced dimerization.

Tight nuclear tethering of cGAS is essential for preventing autoreactivity
cGAS is an intracellular innate immune sensor that detects double-stranded DNA. The presence of billions of base pairs of genomic DNA in all nucleated cells raises the question of how cGAS is not constitutively activated.

Gender and Development: An Evaluation of World Bank Support, 2002-08 [PDF]
This evaluation reviews the World Bank's progress in gender integration from 2002 through 2008. Implementation of a 2001 gender strategy was initially strong, with integration into relevant projects peaking at 64% in 2003; but it declined between 2006 ...

Beyond self-eating: The control of nonautophagic functions and signaling pathways by autophagy-related proteins. [PDF]
The identification of conserved autophagy-related proteins (ATGs) that mediate bulk degradation of cytosolic material laid the foundation for breakthroughs linking autophagy to a litany of physiological processes and disease conditions.

CD8+ T cell-mediated cancer clearance is often suppressed by the interaction between inhibitory molecules like PD-1 and PD-L1, an interaction acts like brakes to prevent T cell overreaction under normal conditions but is exploited by tumor cells to ...

A protein-based cGAS-STING nanoagonist enhances T cell-mediated anti-tumor immune responses
cGAS-STING pathway is a key DNA-sensing machinery and emerges as a promising target to overcome the immunoresistance of solid tumors. Here we describe a bovine serum albumin (BSA)/ferritin-based nanoagonist incorporating manganese (II) ions and β ...
