Cellular sialoglycans are differentially required for endosomal and cell-surface entry of SARS-CoV-2
2024-06-24
Abstract excerpt
Cell entry of severe acute respiratory coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and other CoVs can occur via two distinct routes. Following receptor binding by the spike glycoprotein, membrane fusion can be triggered by spike cleavage either at the cell surface in a transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2)-dependent manner or within endosomes in a cathepsin-dependent manner. Cellular sialoglycans have been proposed to aid in C...
