| Gene Symbol | MB21D1 |
| Gene Full Name | Mab-21 domain containing 1 |
| Function | Nucleotidyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) from ATP and GTP. 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 c[G(2',5')pA(3',5')p]. Has antiviral activity by acting as a key cytosolic DNA sensor, the presence of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the cytoplasm being a danger signal that triggers the immune responses. Binds cytosolic DNA directly, leading to activation and synthesis of cGAMP, a second messenger that binds to and activates TMEM173/STING, thereby triggering type-I interferon production. [UniProt] |

| PTM | Polyglutamylated by TTLL6 at Glu-286, leading to impair DNA-binding activity. Monoglutamylated at Glu-314 by TTLL4, leading to impair the nucleotidyltransferase activity. Deglutamylated by AGBL5/CCP5 and AGBL6/CCP6. Cleaved by CASP1 at Asp-140 and Asp-157 upon DNA virus infection; the cleavage impairs cGAMP production (PubMed:28314590). Also cleaved by the pyroptotic CASP4 and CASP5 during non-canonical inflammasome activation; they don't cut at the same sites than CASP1 (PubMed:28314590). |
