Our observation that SARS-CoV-2 was unable to infect epithelial cells from the 299 basolateral side supports that the viral entry receptor ACE2 is polarly expressed at the apical 300 side 30, 31 . We 332 determined that 1 pfu of SARS-CoV-2 in Vero-E6 cells has a particle (viral genome copy) 333 number of 820, suggesting that a load of 2.46 x 10 5 particles is required to productively infect 1 334 cm 2 of the airway epithelium, which is much higher than the small DNA virus parvovirus human 335 bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) we studied 55 . ./cache/cord-337973-djqzgc1k.txt ./txt/cord-337973-djqzgc1k.txt
