Diagram depicting over-expression and translocation of GRP78 to cell surface due to SARS CoV2 replication induced ER stress, and invasion of hyphae of R. oryzae using cs-GRP78 as its receptor. (a) Entry of SARS CoV2 into host utilizing ACE2 and TMPRSS2 as receptors. (b) Replication of SARS CoV2 inside host cell. (c) ER stress induced due to virus replication. (d) Over expression of GRP78. (e) Translocation of GRP78 to the cell surface. (f) Germination of R. oryzae spores into hyphae after escaping phagocytosis by macrophages. (g) R. oryzae hyphae escape phagocytosis by neutrophils and utilize cs-GRP78 as receptors, (h) to invade host cell.
