β-Coronaviruses use lysosomal organelles for cellular egress

Abstract: Abstractβ-Coronaviruses are a family of positive-strand enveloped RNA viruses that include the severe acute respiratory syndrome-CoV2 (SARS-CoV2). While much is known regarding their cellular entry and replication pathways, their mode of egress remains uncertain; however, this is assumed to be via the biosynthetic secretory pathway by analogy to other enveloped viruses. Using imaging methodologies in combination with virus-specific reporters, we demonstrate that β-Coronaviruses utilize lysosomal trafficking fo… Show more

“…Interestingly, this phenomenon is not restricted to viruses, as it has also been described for intracellular uropathogenic E. coli [20]. Related with our results, a recent preprint describes how beta-coronaviruses, which are enveloped viruses, could exploit the lysosomes for virus egress by disrupting lysosomal acidification [31]. These results, and ours, reveal a potentially unanticipated wide diversity of egress mechanism using lysosomes by different viral families.…”

“…Open reading frames (ORF) that are encoded in the viral RNA genome are translated into virus proteins which replicate and efficiently pack the viral genome into nascent viral particles and support the egress of mature virus particles 9 . Indeed, the virus interactome is primarily derived from virus-virus rather than virus-host interactions 10 , and interactions with host proteins might be actively avoided to prevent any impairment of virus particle formation.…”

“…There, nucleocapsids consisting of progeny genomes bound by N protein interact with the envelope proteins and bud into the ERGIC lumen. Virions are believed to reach the extracellular space by bulk transport, although transport through lysosomal compartments was recently suggested as an alternative ( Ghosh et al, 2020 ). A fraction of S protein reaches the plasma membrane, causing cell fusion with neighboring infected cells and the formation of multinucleated giant cells that are characteristic of COVID-19 lung pathology ( Masters and Perlman, 2013 ; Bryce et al, 2020 ).…”

“…The term "cytokine storm" has been applied to COVID-19; however, it is unclear whether this condition is unique to or even representative of most patients with this disease (Lukan, 2020;Mudd et al, 2020). Emerging evidence suggests that mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients may have suppressed type I interferon responses, suggesting a more complex picture than simple hypercytokinemia (Giamarellos-Bourboulis et al, 2020;Hadjadj et al, 2020;Mudd et al, 2020). The second form of systemic pathology is hypercoagulation, resulting in microthrombus formation and, somewhat counterintuitively, bleeding (Al-Samkari et al, 2020;Bryce et al, 2020).…”
