General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function cGAS is required for IFN-beta expression during chlamydial infection in multiple cell types. Although infected cells deficient for STING or cGAS alone fail to induce IFN-beta, coculture of cells depleted for either STING or cGAS rescues IFN-beta expression. Cyclic GMP-AMP produced in infected cGAS(+)STING(-) cells can migrate into adjacent cells via gap junctions to function in trans in cGAS(-)STING(+) cells Homo sapiens
