How Does cGAS Avoid Sensing Self-DNA under Normal Physiological Conditions?

cGAS is a cytosolic DNA sensor that activates innate immune responses by producing the second messenger 2′3′-cGAMP, which activates the adaptor STING. cGAS senses dsDNA in a length-dependent but sequence-independent manner, meaning it cannot discriminate self-DNA from foreign DNA. In normal physiolo...
