摘要
导言严重急性呼吸系统综合症冠状病毒(SARS-CoV-2)的尖峰(S)蛋白在介导病毒与靶细胞的膜融合中起着至关重要的作用。一些报道表明,SARS-CoV-2 S 蛋白的融合性与利用仓鼠模型测定的病毒内在致病性密切相关。本研究调查了病毒学参数(如:S1/S2裂解效率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率、S1/S2裂解率)、结果与讨论发现S蛋白致熔性与临床分离株形成的S1/S2裂解效率和斑块大小密切相关。然而,S 蛋白致熔性与假病毒感染性、假病毒进入效率和病毒复制动力学的相关性较低。综上所述,我们的研究结果表明,S1/S2裂解效率和斑块大小可能是预测新出现的SARS-CoV-2变异株的内在致病性和S蛋白致熔性的潜在指标。
Virological characteristics correlating with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein fusogenicity
Introduction
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) protein is essential in mediating membrane fusion of the virus with the target cells. Several reports demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 S protein fusogenicity is reportedly closely associated with the intrinsic pathogenicity of the virus determined using hamster models. However, the association between S protein fusogenicity and other virological parameters remains elusive.
Methods
In this study, we investigated the virological parameters (e.g., S1/S2 cleavage efficiency, plaque size, pseudoviral infectivity, pseudovirus entry efficiency, and viral replication kinetics) of eleven previous variants of concern (VOCs) and variants of interest (VOIs) correlating with S protein fusogenicity.
Results and discussion
S protein fusogenicity was found to be strongly correlated with S1/S2 cleavage efficiency and plaque size formed by clinical isolates. However, S protein fusogenicity was less associated with pseudoviral infectivity, pseudovirus entry efficiency, and viral replication kinetics. Taken together, our results suggest that S1/S2 cleavage efficiency and plaque size could be potential indicators to predict the intrinsic pathogenicity and S protein fusogenicity of newly emerged SARS-CoV-2 variants.
