Negative regulation of the cGAS-STING pathway is crucial to limit damaging inflammation. Here, by combining in vitro experiments and myeloid cell-specific conditional knockout mice, the authors identify the autophagy receptor TAX1BP1 as a negative regulator of STING by targeting it for degradation through Golgiphagy and ESCRT-mediated microautophagy.
