| Post Translational Modifications | (Microbial infection) Preferentially ubiquitinated with 'Lys-48' and 'Lys-11'-linked ubiquitin chains by Salmonella effector SopA leading to proteasomal targeting and degradation. Autoubiquitinated. |
| Function | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that plays a key role in innate antiviral immunity by mediating ubiquitination of CGAS and STING1. In response to pathogen- and host-derived double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), targets STING1 to 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination, thereby promoting its homodimerization, a step required for the production of type I interferon IFN-beta. Also mediate monoubiquitination of CGAS, thereby promoting CGAS oligomerization and subsequent activation. Promotes also TNFalpha-induced NF-kappa-B signaling by mediating 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination TAK1, leading to enhanced interaction between TAK1 and CHUK/IKKalpha. Independently of its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, positive regulator of TLR3 signaling. Potentiates extracellular double stranded RNA (dsRNA)-induced expression of IFNB1 and interferon-stimulated genes ISG15, IFIT1/ISG56, CXCL10, OASL and CCL5/RANTES. Promotes establishment of an antiviral state by TLR3 ligand and TLR3-mediated chemokine induction following infection by hepatitis C virus. Acts as a restriction factor of Zika virus through direct interaction with the viral RNA via its C-terminal region. |
