The PRRA insert at the S1/S2 site distinctly modulates cell susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirions. (A to C) Entry of HIV pseudotyped with SARS-CoV-2 S, SARS-CoV-2 S ΔPRRA, bat RaTG13 S, RaTG13 S+PRRA, and pangolin GX S into 293T cells transiently expressing ACE2 (A), Calu-3 cells (B), and Caco-2 cells (C). (D) Western blot analysis of pseudovirions bearing SARS-CoV-2 S, SARS-CoV-2 S ΔPRRA, bat RaTG13 S, RaTG13 S+PRRA, and pangolin GX S. Red, anti-p24 antibody; green, antispike antibody. (E) Infection by pseudovirions harboring the indicated viral glycoproteins in 293T cells transfected with ACE2 alone or in combination with TMPRSS2. Data are presented as means ± SEM. *, P < 0.01.
