Allosteric coupling between Mn(2+) and dsDNA controls the catalytic efficiency and fidelity of cGAS

Cyclic-G/AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS) triggers host innate immune responses against cytosolic double-stranded (ds)DNA arising from genotoxic stress and pathogen invasion. The canonical activation mechanism of cGAS entails dsDNA-binding and dimerization. Here, we report an unexpected activation mechan...
