case <OC:Poxviridae>
FUNCTIONNuclease that is responsible for viral evasion of host cGAS- STING innate immunity. Cleaves 2',3'-cGAMP which is produced by host cGAS following recognition of cytosolic DNA and blocks the subsequent 2',3'-cGAMP-mediated activation of TMEM173/STING, which normally spreads to adjacent cells and activates the interferon and NF-kappa-B immune responses.
else case <OC:Viruses>
FUNCTIONNuclease that cleaves host 2',3'-cGAMP.
end case
case <OC:Insecta>
FUNCTIONNuclease that cleaves 2',3'-cGAMP.
end case
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=2',3'-cGAMP + H2O = Gp(2'-5')Ap(3') + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:59472, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:143093, ChEBI:CHEBI:143098; PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:59473;
case <OC:Viruses>
SUBUNITHomodimer.
DOMAINThe substrate binding site is formed by the N-terminus of a monomer and the C-terminus of the opposite monomer.
end case
case <Feature:PF17057>
SIMILARITYIn the N-terminal section; belongs to the poxin family.
SIMILARITYIn the C-terminal section; belongs to the Schlafen protein family. Subgroup poxviridae B3 subfamily.
else case <OC:Viruses>
SIMILARITYBelongs to the poxin family.
else case <OC:Insecta>
SIMILARITYBelongs to the poxin family. Highly divergent.
CAUTIONThe active site cannot be determined by similarity to the viral poxins.
