Ancient Origin of cGAS-STING Reveals Mechanism of Universal 2′,3′ cGAMP Signaling

In humans, the cGAS-STING immunity pathway signals in response to cytosolic DNA via 2′,3′ cGAMP, a cyclic dinucleotide (CDN) second messenger containing mixed 2′–5′ and 3′–5′ phosphodiester bonds. Prokaryotes also produce CDNs, but these are exclusively 3′ linked, and thus the evolutionary origins o...
