Abstract
Double membrane vesicles (DMV) are used as replication organelles by several RNA viruses. Applying proteomics and lipidomics, Tabata and Prasad et al. find that two cellular acyltransferases (AGPAT1/2), responsible for synthesis of phosphatidic acid, play a role in the DMV-biogenesis of HCV and SARS-CoV-2, highlighting a common biogenesis mechanism for evolutionary distant positive-strand RNA viruses.
