SARS-CoV-2 is part of the Coronaviridae family, whose members are named after their crown-like appearance under the electron microscope caused by the surface glycoproteins that decorate the virus. Coronaviruses have a large (30+ kb) single-stranded positivesense RNA genome encoding for several open reading frames. SARS-COV-2 Envelope protein is the smallest of the major viral structural proteins. During the viral replication cycle, E is abundantly expressed inside the infected cell, but only a small fraction incorporates into the virion envelope , while the majority establishes residence at the site of intracellular trafficking, where it participates in CoV assembly and budding . Recombinant CoVs lacking E exhibit significantly reduced viral titres, disabled viral maturation, or yield incompetent daughter virions, demonstrating the key role the Envleope protein plays in virus production and maturation .
