Top Tweets for #ORF8
A hidden viral protein may be one of the key drivers of severe COVID-19 lung damage.
➡️ Researchers found that #ORF8, an accessory protein secreted by SARS-CoV-2, can “reprogram” lung macrophages, making them more susceptible to infection and triggering pyroptosis—a highly inflammatory form of cell death. 1/

whenever #Mitochondria comes up I always wonder why no one talks about how they're inherited from mum... seems important to me if they're altered during infection, cos, you know, HIV does similar... #Orf8 #Orf10 if expressed

“..Nath believes this shift plays a central role in ME/CFS.”

Positive selection underlies repeated knockout of ORF8 in SARS-CoV-2 evolution https://t.co/JBvdTT7bl0
Based on the #seroprevalence of #ORF8 antigen antibodies relative to the no. of reported cases at different times, @CUHKMedicine estimated that ~2.5 million people in HK were infected with #COVID during the #Omicron wave. Among them, one in two were unrecognised. https://t.co/2HBPQ0fbjY

SARS-CoV-2’s accessory protein #ORF8 modulates lung inflammation and clinical disease progression!
The ORF8 protein of SARS-CoV-2 is the most divergent accessory protein from SARS-CoV-1, with the proteins only possessing 40% amino acid identity. 1/

The enigma of ORF8 gene of SARS2!
A recent tweetorial by @LongDesertTrain has rekindled my interest in this accessory protein of SARS2.
During the early stages of the Covid pandemic, there was a lot of speculation on the exact role of ORF8 gene. 1/

ORF8 out of the box was/is the primary weapon system of SARS-CoV-2 as we illustrated here in early 2020. This below from Topol is more elucidation on the severity factor caused by ORF8.

SARS-CoV-2 & ORF8
a very nice summary of a very interesting publication
30kb CoV2 payload consists of 29 proteins: 16x nonstructural, 4x structural & 9 accessory (incl. ORF8)
ORF8?
flooded into bloodstream by infected cells & directly involved with pathogenic cause of covid-19

“This sub-lineage harbors extra mutations within the nucleoprotein, spike protein, and open-reading body 8 (ORF8).”
