Paramyxoviridae - Protein Virus
Meaning of Paramyxoviridae: A family of viruses with special affinity for
mucus proteins. Some properties are similar to orthomyxoviridae, but differ in
morphology, nucleic acid composition and replication. The measles, respiratory
syncytial and Newcastle disease virus in the undergraduate can infect humans
and dogs at the same time, which is of great importance in the fields of
medicine, veterinary medicine and military.
The Paramyxoviridae family in veterinary
medicine includes Newcastle disease virus, Pev ruminant virus, and canine
distemper virus.
Paramyxoviridae
Diameter:
150 nm
Paramyxoviridae Particulars
Polymorphic, slightly larger than
orthomyxovirus, 150 nanometers or larger in diameter, with an envelope, and the
surface of the envelope has ridge-like protrusions composed of glycoproteins.
The virus particle contains a spiral-symmetric core-shell, and the nucleic acid
is a continuous ssRNA (single-stranded RNA) long molecule with a molecular
weight (5-7) × 106.
RNA is negative stranded. During replication, RNA
polymerase contained in the virion is transcribed into positive stranded mRNA
(messenger ribonucleic acid).
RNA and protein synthesis are performed in the
cytoplasm and sprout through the cytoplasmic membrane.
Viral replication cannot
be inhibited by actinomycin D. No genetic recombination was found.
Most
undergraduate viruses have erythrocyte adsorption and agglutination activity,
neuraminidase activity, hemolytic activity, and cell fusion activity.
Viruses
usually contain 5 to 7 proteins such as RNA polymerase, hemagglutinin,
neuraminidase, cell fusion protein, core-shell structural protein, and membrane
protein.
Undergraduate virus-infected cell culture often causes multinuclear
giant cell disease.
The viruses that are pathogenic to humans
include parainfluenza virus, measles virus, mumps virus and respiratory
syncytial virus.
