The cleavage products include 16 nonstructural proteins (nsp) like the RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) that facilitates the production of antisense RNA, as well as 4 structural proteins like the S glycoprotein, envelope (E) proteins, membrane proteins (M), and nucleocapsid (N) proteins. 21 , 22 , 23 Newly generated antisense RNA is used as a template for new copies of viral positive‐sense RNA as well as for the production of differently sized subgenomic mRNAs, which can be translated into new viral proteins at the endoplasmic reticulum. Finally, proteins and genomic RNA are assembled, packed into vesicles in the Golgi apparatus and exocytosed to the outside to repeat the process in surrounding cells. 23
