STING is a facilitator of innate immune signaling that acts as a sensor of cytosolic DNA from bacteria and viruses and promotes the production of type I interferon. RNA viral infection can also lead to the activation of STING through viral–cellular membrane fusion and viral infection-induced mitochondrial damage. SARS-CoV-2 nsp5 protease (3CLpro) has the ability to specifically antagonize the immune activation induced by cGAS-STING in human lung cell line A549 and human Huh-7 cell line, by binding to STING and inhibiting its K63-ubiquitin-mediated modification, leading to mediation of NF-kappaB signaling. Moreover, the recruitment of TBK1 and IKKbeta by STING was inhibited by 3CLpro (Rui et al, 2021).
