The Role of the Tyrosine-Based Sorting Signals of the ORF3a Protein of SARS-CoV-2 on Intracellular Trafficking, Autophagy, and Apoptosis
2023-07-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The open reading frame 3a (ORF3a) is an accessory transmembrane protein that is important to the pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2. The cytoplasmic domain of ORF3a has three canonical tyrosine-based sorting signals (YxxΦ; where x is any amino acid and Φ is a hydrophobic amino acid with a bulky -R group). They have been implicated in the trafficking of membrane proteins to the cell plasma membrane and...
