TMPRSS2 promotes SARS-CoV-2 evasion from NCOA7-mediated restriction. by Hataf Khan, Helena Winstone, Jose M Jimenez-Guardeño, Carl Graham, Katie J Doores, Caroline Goujon, David A Matthews, Andrew D Davidson, Suzannah J Rihn, Massimo Palmarini, Stuart J D Neil, Michael H Malim

“…Interferons play a critical role in regulating host immune responses to SARS-CoV-2, but the interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene (ISG) effectors that inhibit SARS-CoV-2 are not well characterized. The IFN-inducible short isoform of human nuclear receptor coactivator 7 (NCOA7) inhibits endocytic virus entry, interacts with the vacuolar ATPase, and promotes endo-lysosomal vesicle acidification and lysosomal protease activity. …”
