Here, CRISPR screens tested IEM genes for immunologic roles and IEI genes for metabolic effects and found considerable previously unappreciated crossover. Analysis of IEMs showed that N-linked glycosylation and the hexosamine pathway enzyme <i>Gfpt1</i> are critical for T cell expansion and function. Further, T helper (T<sub>H</sub>1) cells synthesized uridine diphosphate <i>N</i>-acetylglucosamine more rapidly and were more impaired by <i>Gfpt1</i> deficiency than T<sub>H</sub>17 cells. Screening IEI genes found that <i>Bcl11b</i> promotes the CD4 T cell mitochondrial activity and <i>Mcl1</i> expression necessary to prevent metabolic stress.

Nest1 is up-regulated in blood-fed female <i>A. aegypti</i> and facilitates Zika virus dissemination in human skin explants. Nest1 has a stronger affinity for CD47 than its natural ligand, signal regulatory protein α, competing for binding at the same interface. The interaction between Nest1 with CD47 suppresses phagocytosis by human macrophages and inhibits proinflammatory responses by white blood cells, thereby suppressing antiviral responses in the skin.

Here, we used a cGAS knockin (KI) mouse model that develops systemic autoimmunity. In the lungs of cGAS-KI mice, blood vessels were enclosed by organized lymphoid tissues that resemble tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs). Cell-intrinsic cGAS induction promoted up-regulation of CCR5 in CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells and led to CCL5 production in vascular endothelial cells. Peripheral CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells were recruited to the lungs and produced CXCL13 and interferon-γ. The latter triggered endothelial cell death, potentiated CCL5 production, and was essential for TLS establishment. Blocking CCL5 or CCR5, or depleting CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells, impaired TLS formation. cGAS-mediated TLS formation also enhanced humoral and antitumor responses.
