Nuclear Translocation of Spike mRNA and Protein is a Novel pathogenic Feature of SARS-CoV-2
Sarah Sattar et al. Nuclear translocation of spike mRNA and protein is a novel pathogenic feature of SARS-CoV-2. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes severe pathophysiology in vulnerable older populations and appears to be highly pathogenic and more transmissible than SARS-CoV or MERS-CoV [1, 2].
