Authors: David M Kern / Ben Sorum / Sonali S Mali / Christopher M Hoel / Savitha Sridharan / Jonathan P Remis / Daniel B Toso / Abhay Kotecha / Diana M Bautista / Stephen G Brohawn / Abstract: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the virus that causes the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

SARS-CoV-2 encodes three putative ion channels: E, 8a, and 3a. 3a is expressed in SARS patient tissue and anti-3a antibodies are observed in patient plasma. 3a has been implicated in viral release, inhibition of autophagy, inflammasome activation, and cell death and its deletion reduces viral titer and morbidity in mice, raising the possibility that 3a could be an effective vaccine or therapeutic target. Here, we present the first cryo-EM structures of SARS-CoV-2 3a to 2.1 Å resolution and demonstrate 3a forms an ion channel in reconstituted liposomes. The structures in lipid nanodiscs reveal 3a dimers and tetramers adopt a novel fold with a large polar cavity that spans halfway across the membrane and is accessible to the cytosol and the surrounding bilayer through separate water- and lipid-filled openings. Electrophysiology and fluorescent ion imaging experiments show 3a forms Ca-permeable non-selective cation channels. We identify point mutations that alter ion permeability and discover polycationic inhibitors of 3a channel activity. We find 3a-like proteins in multiple and lineages that infect bats and humans. These data show 3a forms a functional ion channel that may promote COVID-19 pathogenesis and suggest targeting 3a could broadly treat coronavirus diseases. | |||||||||
