The innate immune system has evolved to detect molecular signatures associated with invading microbes and the cellular damage these microbes cause. Recognition of microbial genomes, particularly those of intracellular microbes such as viruses, is crucial in triggering a protective response and preventing infection. Many nucleic acid forms are uniquely associated with pathogens (eg, 5Lppp-RNA, dsRNA) or localize in abnormal cellular compartments during infection (eg, cytosolic DNA), facilitating the distinction between self and nonself [1]. In particular, the detection of cytosolic DNA has emerged as an important process in infection, as well as cancer, sterile inflammation, and autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), in which self-DNA induces type I interferon (IFN) signaling and increases the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). Although it has been known for decades that foreign DNA activates potent immune responses [2], only recently have we started to identify the proteins that are responsible for these responses and how they work [3]. A crucial molecule in this process is stimulator of interferon genes (STING), an ER/Golgiresident protein that recognizes cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), the product of the activated DNA-binding enzyme cGAMP synthase (cGAS). Activation of STING results in a potent transcriptional response involving IFN and multiple inflammatory genes. To ensure that immune responses are proportionate and can eliminate the exogenous challenge without inducing excessive immunopathology, a fine balance between activation and deactivation must be maintained [4]. Writing in Cellular & Molecular Immunology, Hou et al.[5]. revealed how activated STING is delivered for degradation by the autophagic cargo receptor CCDC50, illuminating the mechanisms that control STING turnover and regulate immune responses to infection and chronic autoimmune disease (Fig. 1).Autophagy is an essential process that mediates the breakdown and recycling of unwanted cargo and cellular organelles. Autophagy is an integral part of many cellular stress responses, including those induced during infection and inflammation. Autophagy modulates both the induction and suppression of immune and inflammatory responses, and this complex relationship is likely to be determined by mechanisms associated with the selective recognition of substrates. Cellular cargo is typically directed to autophagosomes by autophagy adaptors such as p62, NBR1, or NDP52. These adaptors recognize polyubiquitylated substrates via ubiquitin-binding domains (UBDs) and target these substrates to nascent phagophores via association with the membrane protein LC3 (ATG8). CCDC50 (also known as Ymer) shares similarities with these adaptors. CCDC50 contains a UBD that recognizes polyubiquitylated substrates and LC3-interacting
