CRISPR-Cas9 genetic screens reveal regulation of TMPRSS2 by the Elongin BC-VHL complex

Abstract The TMPRSS2 cell surface protease is used by a broad range of respiratory viruses to facilitate entry into target cells. Together with ACE2, TMPRSS2 represents a key factor for SARS-CoV-2 infection, as TMPRSS2 mediates cleavage of viral spike protein, enabling direct fusion of the viral env...
