Deskripsi

The RNA-sensing pathway has been associated with type I interferon (IFN) production induced by DNA damaging agents. Here the authors reveal that RIG-I, a cytosolic RNA sensor that recognizes RNA virus and initiates IFN signaling, is recruited to double-stranded breaks and suppresses non-homologous end joining.
