2018年8月17日 · The binding of DNA to cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) leads to the production of the secondary messenger cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), which activates innate immune responses. We have shown that DNA binding to cGAS robustly induced the formation of liquidlike droplets in which cGAS was activated.

2024年9月25日 · By establishing a genetic code expansion orthogonal system for lactyl-lysine incorporation, we demonstrate that the presence of a lactyl moiety at a specific cGAS amino-terminal site abolishes...
Liquid–liquid phase separation drives cellular function and
2022年2月11日 · Biomolecular condensates are widely observed to directly regulate key cellular processes involved in cancer cell pathology, and the dysregulation of LLPS is increasingly implicated as a...
DNA-induced liquid phase condensation of cGAS activates ... - Science
2018年7月5日 · Du and Chen show that DNA binding to its cytoplasmic sensor, cyclic GMP–AMP synthase (cGAS), results in liquid droplets containing activated cGAS (see the Perspective by Ablasser). This phenomenon occurs through multivalent interactions, augmented by zinc, between DNA binding domains on cGAS and DNA in a length-dependent manner.
Mechanisms of phase-separation-mediated cGAS activation …
2022年7月8日 · DNA-induced LLPS of cGAS, driven by multivalent interactions between cGAS and DNA, is essential in vivo to induce cGAS activation and to trigger the cGAS–STING signaling pathway (30, 38). On the other hand, mutation and truncation of cGAS and short DNA (< 45 bp) attenuate the oligomerization and LLPS of cGAS–DNA, resulting in reduced or ...
Liquid-liquid phase separation: Orchestrating cell ... - Cell Press
2021年10月21日 · cGAS LLPS depends not only on the concentration of dsDNA but also its length, with longer dsDNA providing more binding sites and thus greater multivalency. In addition to DNA binding, cGAS catalytic activity requires Zn 2+ , which stabilizes the binding of cGAS to B-form DNA and activates its nucleotidyltransferase (NTase) activity ( Civril et ...

进而得出结论,保护 dna免受trex1降解可能是cgas llps促进dna感知的主要模式。研究人员通过免疫亲和纯化技术和免疫荧光染色实验发现,除dna外,多种rna结合蛋白虽然不能诱导cgas产生cgamp,但也可与cgas发生llps ,来微调cgas的活性。
Mechanisms of phase-separation-mediated cGAS activation
2022年7月8日 · Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), as a DNA sensor, plays an important role in cGAS-STING pathway, which further induces expression of type I interferon as the innate immune response. Previous studies reported that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) driven by cGAS and long DNA is essential to promot …
