2’3’-c-diAM(PS)2(Rp,Rp) endotoxin-free, sterile STING ligand
2’3’-c-di-AM(PS)2 (Rp,Rp) is the Rp,Rp-isomer of the 2’3’ bisphosphorothioate analog of 3’3’-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (c-di-AMP). c-di-AMP is second messenger molecule produced by bacteria that has potent immunostimulant activity in mammals [1].
This cyclic dinucleotide (CDN) induces the production of type I interferons (IFNs) following its recognition by the endoplasmic reticulum-resident receptor STING (stimulator of interferon genes) and the recruitment of TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) and IRF3 (interferon regulatory factor 3) [2].
2’3’-c-di-AM(PS)2 (Rp,Rp) has a higher affinity for STING than c-di-AMP due to the presence of a 2’-5’, 3’-5’ mixed linkage, as found in endogenous human CDNs produced by cGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase) [3]. It activates all known human STING alleles as well as mouse STING.
In addition, this analog contains two phosphorothioate diester linkages to protect it against degradation by phosphodiesterases that are present in host cells or in the systemic circulation [4].
The Rp, Rp dithio diastereoisomer was found to induce higher type I IFN production compared to the Rp/Sp dithio diastereoisomers or c-di-AMP [3].
InvivoGen has developed STING reporter cells in two well established immune cell models: human THP-1 monocytes and mouse RAW 264.7 macrophages.
These cells express a reporter gene (SEAP or Lucia luciferase) under control of an IRF-inducible and/or NF-κB-inducible promoter.
