SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers an incomplete autophagy response in multiple cell lines. Expression of SARS-CoV-2 viroporin 3a (ORF3a) efficiently induces autophagosome formation by binding to UVRAG and triggering autophagy, but inhibiting the fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes by disrupting the formation of the Beclin1:VSP34:UVRAG complex (Qu Y et al, 2020). Although 3a proteins are highly conserved between the SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1 3a showed no effect on autophagy response (Qu Y et al, 2020).
