Abstract

Lum et al. characterize the global protein interactome of the DNA sensor, cGAS, in cellular homeostasis and during HSV-1 infection. Integrating quantitative proteomics, CRISPR-Cas9 technology, reciprocal isolations, and cytokine assays, the function of the discovered cGAS-OASL interaction suggests negative interferon regulation and crosstalk between the DNA and RNA sensing pathways.
