UniProtKB description: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that plays a key role in innate antiviral immunity by mediating ubiquitination of CGAS and STING1 (PubMed:21074459, PubMed:29426904). In response to pathogen- and host-derived double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), targets STING1 to 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination, thereby promoting its homodimerization, a step required for the production of type I interferon IFN-beta (PubMed:21074459). Also mediates monoubiquitination of CGAS, thereby promoting CGAS oligomerization and subsequent activation (PubMed:29426904). Independently of its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, positive regulator of TLR3 signaling (By similarity). Potentiates extracellular double stranded RNA (dsRNA)-induced expression of IFNB1 and interferon-stimulated genes ISG15, IFIT1/ISG56, CXCL10, OASL and CCL5/RANTES (By similarity).
