Abstract:Coronaviruses hijack host cell metabolic pathways and resources to support their replication. They induce extensive host endomembrane remodeling to generate viral replication organelles, and exploit host membranes for assembly and budding of their enveloped progeny virions. Because of the overall significance of host membranes, we sought to gain insight into the role of host factors involved in lipid metabolism in cells infected with Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). We employed a single… Show more
