Background: SARS-CoV-2 ORF6

SARS-CoV-2 Open Reading Frame 6 (ORF6) is one of the nine downstream accessory protein open reading frames of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19 (1). SARS-CoV-2 ORF6 is 61 amino acids (aa) with a theoretical molecular weight of 7.2 kDa (2, 3). The amino acid sequence alignment of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2's ORF7a has 68.9% sequence identity and 93.4% sequence similarity (3).

SARS-CoV-2 ORF6 is an ER/Golgi membrane protein that disrupts the formation of the nuclear import complex by binding karyopherin alpha 2 (KPNA2) and karyopherin beta 1 (KPNB1) (2, 4). More specifically, it was found that this disruption is mediated by ORF6's localization to the nuclear pore complex (NPC) where it binds Nup98-Rae1 to target the nuclear import pathway (5). This disruption further prevents the transport of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and ultimately blocks interferon (IFN) production and antiviral responses (2, 4, 5). It has been hypothesized that the pathology of COVID-19 is largely initiated by the SARS-CoV-2 proteins ORF6 and non-structural protein 1 (NSP1) which together inhibit STAT1 activity (4). The repression of STAT1 thereby instead promotes STAT3 activation and the upregulation of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), leading to a cascade of events that are key features of COVID-19 (4). These harmful events include thrombosis, production of cytokines and chemokines by macrophages, profibrotic changes, hypoxia, and eventual T-cell lymphopenia (4). These finding suggest that targeting STAT1 and STAT3 might be beneficial therapeutic strategies for treating COVID-19.
