Abstract
STING is considered central to antiviral immunity via induction of type 1 interferons, but can also activate autophagy. Here the authors made two mice with different STING mutations that differentially affect these antiviral responses, and surprisingly show that inhibiting STING-dependent type 1 interferon production does not affect susceptibility to HSV-1 infection.
