SARS-CoV-2-encoded ORF7a (7a) was shown to localize to the late endosomal compartment, co-localizing with the marker Rab9 upon co-expression of tagged proteins in HeLa cells (Hayn M et al. 2021). Further, the maturation of autophagosomes was assessed by mCherry-GFP-LC3B reporter system and pH-dependent lysotracker upon expression of viral 7a in human embryonic kidney 293T (HEK293T) cells (Hayn M et al. 2021). The effect of 7a on lysosomal-autophagosomal fusion was assessed by colocalization studies in HeLa cells using the lysosomal marker LAMP1 and the autophagosome marker LC3B (Hayn M et al. 2021). The results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 7a blocks autophagic flux in human cells by reducing acidity of lysosome (Hayn M et al. 2021; Koepke L et al. 2021).
