Spying on SARS-CoV-2 with Fluorescent Tags and Protease Reporters
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has caused worldwide disruption through the COVID-19 pandemic, providing a sobering reminder of profound impact viruses can have on human well-being. Understanding virus life cycles and interactions with host cells lays groundwork for exploring therapeutic strategies against virus-related diseases. Fluorescence microscopy plays vital role in imaging, offering high spatiotemporal resolution, sensitivity, spectroscopic versatility. In this opinion piece, we first highlight two recent techniques, SunTag StayGold, situ imaging viral RNA translation assembly. Next, discuss new class genetically encoded fluorogenic protease reporters, such as FlipGFP, which be customized to monitor SARS-CoV-2’s main (Mpro) or papain-like (PLpro) activity. These assays proven effective identifying potential antivirals high-throughput screening, making reporters promising platform disease diagnostics therapeutics.

As COVID-19 was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 2020, it is an emerging need to discuss different aspects of this pandemic. In any pandemic, valid and rapid laboratory diagnostic tests are critically important for early diagnosis, which will increase the rate of successful treatment and more importantly prevent the spread of the disease.
متن کاملSARS-COV-2 Virus; Immune Responses and The Immunopathogenesis
Abstract Background and Objectives Clinical features of SARS-COV-2 virus include fever, headache, cough, sore throat, and shortness of breath, and in severe forms it leads to disseminated intravascular coagulation, septic shock, and ultimately death. Excessive secretion of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1 leads to cytokine storms in this disease. The emergence of new va...
