Mutations in LSM11 and RNU7-1, which encode components of the replication-dependent histone pre-mRNA–processing complex, cause an autoinflammatory syndrome due to enhanced interferon signaling mediated by the cGAS–STING pathway, showing an essential role for nuclear histones in suppressing the immunogenicity of self-DNA.
