Stimulator of interferon genes protein
FunctionStimulator of interferon genes protein or transmembrane protein 173 (STING) is an ER-associated membrane protein. STING signals immune responses in human and other animals. STING is activated by cyclic GMP-AMP produced by Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase whose activity is triggered by infections of DNA-containing pathogens[1]. A PLPLRT/SD conserved motif at the STING C-terminal plays a critical role in turning on the immune system to fight against viral infections[2]. DiseaseSTING mutations are associated with autoimmune diseases[3]. Structural highlightsThe 3D structure of the complex between human STING and cyclic GMP-AMP shows the dinucleotide bound by the symmetric dimer of STING. The U-shaped cleft between the 2 subunits makes numerous interactions with the U-shaped ligand. A Tyr residue from each monomer stacks against each of the purine moieties while an Arg residue from each monomer forms hydrogen bonds to the dinucleotide [4].
