      This valuable study investigates the role of dinucleoside polyphosphates in regulating the cGAS-STING-TBK1 axis of innate immunity. The data collected using multiple biochemical and cellular assays, plus X-ray crystallography, are solid, but testing additional polyphosphates and using NUDT2KO cells will further strengthen the main conclusion. This paper will be broadly relevant to those studying various innate immune pathways.

      eLife Assessment

      This valuable study substantially improves the phylogenetic framework for Kinetoplastea through greatly expanded sampling of free-living neobodonids; the phylogenomic analyses provide convincing evidence that neobodonids are paraphyletic and establish a substantially revised framework for deep relationships within Metakinetoplastina. The work forms the foundation for future comparative studies of kinetoplastid evolution and systematics, although its implications for the origins of parasitism should not be overstated. An 18S rRNA phylogeny documenting the placement of the newly sampled strains within previously recognized neobodonid lineages and/or confirmation of the principal topology using a well-documented phylogenomic set of marker genes would further strengthen the study. The work will be of particular interest to researchers studying protist evolution and the evolutionary context of trypanosomatids.
