SARS-CoV-2 harnesses host translational shutoff and autophagy to optimize virus yields: The role of the envelope (E) protein
2022-03-25
Abstract excerpt
The SARS-CoV-2 virion is composed of four structural proteins: spike (S), nucleocapsid (N), membrane (M), and envelope (E). E spans the membrane a single time and is the smallest, yet most enigmatic of the structural proteins. E is conserved among coronaviruses and has an essential role in virus-mediated pathogenesis. We found that ectopic expression of E had deleterious effects on the host cell as it activated st...
