Compilation Thread on ORF8 ORF8 or Fate?
1. ZLS (2018):
"Considering the variability of orf8 in bats, civets and humans, investigating the function of orf8 is a priority, particularly the contribution of these different variants to viral pathogenesis."


2. ORF8 or Fate?
"In addition to receptor binding, proteolytic cleavage of S & potentially other mutations that affect virion & trimer stability may be important for virus transmissibility in different hosts, & these factors need to be studied

3. ORF8 or Fate?
Overwhelmingly these viruses had mutations or
29 deletions in ORF8 - associated with reduced replicative fitness of the virus.. may be associated with host adaptation
