STING agonist negative control
Cyclic di-uridine monophosphate (c-di-UMP) is a synthetic cyclic dinucleotide containing a pyrimidine base.
Unlike the purine-containing cyclic dinucleotides (c-di-AMP, c-di-GMP and c-di-IMP), c-di-UMP is not predicted to bind strongly to STING [1]. The smaller size of the pyrimidine base is expected to prevent the formation of stacking interactions that are crtitical for proper binding to STING.
Indeed, STING-expressing cells, such as THP1-Blue™ ISG cells, do not respond to c-di-UMP, even at high concentrations.
