Structural insight into the cGAS active site explains differences between therapeutically relevant species

Abstract Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) is an intracellular sensor of double-stranded DNA that triggers a pro-inflammatory response upon binding. The interest in cGAS as a drug discovery target has increased substantially over the past decade due to growing evidence linking its activation to numerou...
