ZCCHC3 is a co-sensor of cGAS for dsDNA recognition in innate immune response
cGAS is an important mediator of antiviral immune responses, but the regulation of its activity is unknown. Here, the authors identify a zinc finger protein, ZCCHC3, that enhances the binding of cGAS to dsDNA and is important for its activation following viral infection.
