Background Information
cGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP synthase) is a cytosolic DNA sensor that serves to mount an immune response against the invasion of microbial pathogens such as viruses. cGAS normally resides as an inactive protein in the cell. Upon binding to DNA, cGAS undergoes a conformational change to an active state and produces the second messenger cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) from ATP and GTP, which is subsequently detected by the cyclic-dinucleotide sensor STING, an ~40 kDa dimeric transmembrane protein at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). cGAS not only is found in the cytosol but has a multifaceted cellular distribution that involves localization at the cell membrane and in the nucleus (PMID: 32424334). The calculated molecular weight of cGAS is 58 kDa. With post-translational modification, the MW of cGAS will be migrated to 70 kDa.
