Ribophorin-1 Governs Spike Abundance of Highly Pathogenic Coronaviruses by ER-associated degradation
2026-05-21
Abstract excerpt
The spike protein of highly pathogenic coronaviruses is indispensable for viral entry, pathogenesis, and immune evasion. However, specific host factors governing spike protein degradation and abundance on progeny virions remain largely uncharacterized. Here, we identify Ribophorin-1 (RPN1), a non-catalytic subunit of the oligosaccharyltransferase (OST) complex, as an ER-localized host restriction factor that selec...
