SARS-CoV-2 Envelope Protein - Background Information
The envelope protein is one of the four integral proteins found on SARS-CoV-2 viral particles. The protein has a central role in virus morphogenesis and assembly, acting as a viroporin and self-assembling in host membranes to form pentameric protein-lipid pores that allow ion transport. The E protein also plays a role in the induction of apoptosis (by similarity).
