Prevalence and impact of molecular variation in the three-prime repair exonuclease 1 TREX1 and its implications for oncology
Abstract Background The three-prime repair exonuclease 1, TREX1, degrades cytosolic DNA to prevent aberrant immune activation. Its inactivation results in DNA accumulation in the cytosol and induction of the cGAS-STING DNA sensing pathway, interferon signaling, and inflammation. Germline pathogenic...
