SARS-CoV-2 SUD2 and Nsp5 Conspire to Boost Apoptosis of Respiratory Epithelial Cells via an Augmented Interaction with the G-Quadruplex of BclII

ABSTRACT The molecular mechanisms underlying how SUD2 recruits other proteins of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to exert its G-quadruplex (G4)-dependent pathogenic function is unknown. Herein, Nsp5 was singled out as a binding partner of the SUD2-N+M domains (SUD2core)...
