Crystal structure of human cGAS apo form
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24116191
Function
[CGAS_HUMAN] Nucleotidyltransferase that catalyzes formation of cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) from ATP and GTP and exhibits antiviral activity. Has antiviral activity by acting as a key cytosolic DNA sensor, the presence of DNA in the cytoplasm being a danger signal that triggers the immune responses. Binds cytosolic DNA directly, leading to activation and synthesis of cGAMP, a second messenger that binds to and activates TMEM173/STING, thereby triggering type-I interferon production.[1] [2]
About this Structure
4mkp is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
