Post Translational Modifications The N-terminal disordered part (1-146) is phosphorylated by AURKB during the G2-M transition, blocking CGAS liquid phase separation and preventing activation. Phosphorylation at Tyr-201 by BLK promotes cytosolic retention. Localizes into the nucleus following dephosphorylation at Tyr-201. Phosphorylation at Ser-420 activates the nucleotidyltransferase activity. Dephosphorylation at Ser-420 by PPP6C impairs its ability to bind GTP, thereby inactivating it. Phosphorylation at Thr-52 and Ser-199 by PRKDC inhibits its cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity by impairing homodimerization and activation. Phosphorylation at Ser-291 by AKT (AKT1, AKT2 or AKT3) suppresses the nucleotidyltransferase activity. Phosphorylation at Ser-291 by CDK1 during mitosis leads to its inhibition, thereby preventing CGAS activation by self-DNA during mitosis. Dephosphorylated at Ser-291 by protein phosphatase PP1 upon mitotic exit. Ubiquitinated at Lys-402 via 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains, leading to its SQSTM1-mediated autophagic degradation. Interaction with TRIM14 promotes recruitment of USP14, leading to deubiquitinate Lys-402 and stabilize CGAS. Ubiquitinated at Lys-372 by RNF185 via 'Lys-27'-linked polyubiquitination, promoting CGAS cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity. Monoubiquitination at Lys-335 by TRIM56 promotes oligomerization and subsequent activation. Monoubiquitination by TRIM41 promotes CGAS activation. Ubiquitination at Lys-271 and Lys-464 via 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitination promotes its degradation. Deubiquitination at Lys-271 by USP29 promotes its stabilization. Deubiquitinated by USP27X, promoting its stabilization. Ubiquitinated at Lys-399 via 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains by MARCHF8, leading to the inhibition of its DNA binding ability. Sumoylated at Lys-217 and Lys-464 by TRIM38 in uninfected cells and during the early phase of viral infection, promoting its stability by preventing ubiquitination at Lys-271 and Lys-464, and subsequent degradation. Desumoylated by SENP2 during the late phase of viral infection. Sumoylation at Lys-335, Lys-372 and Lys-382 prevents DNA-binding, oligomerization and nucleotidyltransferase activity. Desumoylation at Lys-335, Lys-372 and Lys-382 by SENP7 relieves inhibition and activates CGAS. Polyglutamylated by TTLL6 at Glu-272, leading to impair DNA-binding activity. Monoglutamylated at Glu-302 by TTLL4, leading to impair the nucleotidyltransferase activity. Deglutamylated by AGBL5/CCP5 and AGBL6/CCP6. Acetylation at Lys-372, Lys-382 and Lys-402 inhibits the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity. Deacetylated upon cytosolic DNA challenge such as viral infections. Acetylation by KAT5 increases the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity by promoting DNA-binding and subsequent activation. Proteolytically cleaved by apoptotic caspases during apoptosis, leading to its inactivation. The damage of the nucleus and the mitochondria during apoptosis leads to leakage of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, which activate CGAS: cleavage and inactivation during apoptosis in required to prevent cytokine overproduction. Cleaved by CASP7 and CASP3 during virus-induced apoptosis, thereby inactivating it and preventing cytokine overproduction. Cleaved by CASP1 upon DNA virus infection.the cleavage impairs cGAMP production. Also cleaved by the pyroptotic CASP4 during non-canonical inflammasome activation.does not cut at the same sites than CASP1. Degraded via selective autophagy following interaction with Irgm1. Irgm1 promotes CGAS recruitment to autophagosome membranes, promoting its SQSTM1/p62-dependent autophagic degradation. Poly-ADP-ribosylation at Glu-176 by PARP1 impairs DNA-binding, thereby preventing the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity. Palmitoylation at Cys-459 by ZDHHC18 impairs DNA-binding, thereby preventing the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase activity. Monomethylated at Lys-491 by SETD7. Monomethylation promotes interaction with SGF29, preventing interaction between PARP1 nad SGF29. Demethylation by RIOX1 promotes interaction with PARP1, followed by PARP1 inactivation.
Function Nucleotidyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of cyclic GMP-AMP (2',3'-cGAMP) from ATP and GTP and plays a key role in innate immunity. Catalysis involves both the formation of a 2',5' phosphodiester linkage at the GpA step and the formation of a 3',5' phosphodiester linkage at the ApG step, producing cG(2',5')pA(3',5')p. Acts as a key DNA sensor: directly binds double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), inducing the formation of liquid-like droplets in which CGAS is activated, leading to synthesis of 2',3'-cGAMP, a second messenger that binds to and activates STING1, thereby triggering type-I interferon production. Preferentially binds long dsDNA (around 45 bp) and forms ladder-like networks that function cooperatively to stabilize individual cGAS-dsDNA complexes. Acts as a key foreign DNA sensor, the presence of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the cytoplasm being a danger signal that triggers the immune responses. Has antiviral activity by sensing the presence of dsDNA from DNA viruses in the cytoplasm. Also acts as an innate immune sensor of infection by retroviruses by detecting the presence of reverse-transcribed DNA in the cytosol. Detection of retroviral reverse-transcribed DNA in the cytosol may be indirect and be mediated via interaction with PQBP1, which directly binds reverse-transcribed retroviral DNA. Also detects the presence of DNA from bacteria. 2',3'-cGAMP can be transferred from producing cells to neighboring cells through gap junctions, leading to promote STING1 activation and convey immune response to connecting cells. 2',3'-cGAMP can also be transferred between cells by virtue of packaging within viral particles contributing to IFN-induction in newly infected cells in a cGAS-independent but STING1-dependent manner. Also senses the presence of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) that are translocated to the cytosol following phagocytosis, leading to synthesis of 2',3'-cGAMP. In addition to foreign DNA, can also be activated by endogenous nuclear or mitochondrial DNA. When self-DNA leaks into the cytosol during cellular stress (such as mitochondrial stress, DNA damage, mitotic arrest or senescence), or is present in form of cytosolic micronuclei, CGAS is activated leading to a state of sterile inflammation. Acts as a regulator of cellular senescence by binding to cytosolic chromatin fragments that are present in senescent cells, leading to trigger type-I interferon production via STING1 and promote cellular senescence. Also involved in the inflammatory response to genome instability and double-stranded DNA breaks: acts by localizing to micronuclei arising from genome instability. Micronuclei, which as frequently found in cancer cells, consist of chromatin surrounded by its own nuclear membrane: following breakdown of the micronuclear envelope, a process associated with chromothripsis, CGAS binds self-DNA exposed to the cytosol, leading to 2',3'-cGAMP synthesis and subsequent activation of STING1 and type-I interferon production. In a healthy cell, CGAS is however kept inactive even in cellular events that directly expose it to self-DNA, such as mitosis, when cGAS associates with chromatin directly after nuclear envelope breakdown or remains in the form of postmitotic persistent nuclear cGAS pools bound to chromatin. Nuclear CGAS is inactivated by chromatin via direct interaction with nucleosomes, which block CGAS from DNA binding and thus prevent CGAS-induced autoimmunity. Also acts as a suppressor of DNA repair in response to DNA damage: inhibits homologous recombination repair by interacting with PARP1, the CGAS-PARP1 interaction leading to impede the formation of the PARP1-TIMELESS complex. In addition to DNA, also sense translation stress: in response to translation stress, translocates to the cytosol and associates with collided ribosomes, promoting its activation and triggering type-I interferon production.
