Oxidative (or respiratory) burst confers host defense against pathogens by generating reactive species, including reactive nitrogen species (RNS). The microbial infection-induced excessive RNS damages many biological molecules via S-nitrosothiol (SNO) accumulation. However, the mechanism by which the host enables innate immunity activation during oxidative burst remains largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), the main endogenous SNO, attenuates innate immune responses against herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) and Listeria monocytogenes infections. Mechanistically, GSNO induces the S-nitrosylation of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) at Cys257, inhibiting its binding to the second messenger cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP). Alcohol dehydrogenase 5 (ADH5), the key enzyme that metabolizes GSNO to decrease cellular SNOs, facilitates STING activation by inhibiting S-nitrosylation. Concordantly, Adh5 deficiency show defective STING-dependent immune responses upon microbial challenge and facilitates viral replication. Thus, cellular oxidative burst-induced RNS attenuates the STING-mediated innate immune responses to microbial infection, while ADH5 licenses STING activation by maintaining cellular SNO homeostasis.

View all literature mentionsA sequence analysis tool providing a simple but detailed analysis of human genes and their variations. For each gene, a gene-gene relationship network can be generated based on protein-protein interaction data, metabolic pathway connections and extended through phylogenetic relations. Snap provides tools for designing sequence primers and evaluating RNA splicing effects of single SNPs - known from the databases or defined by you. Primers can be designed for the amplification or sequencing of cDNA, genomic DNA, introns only or exons only.
