ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Paramyxoviridae [PDF]
Journal of General Virology, 2019 The family Paramyxoviridae consists of large enveloped RNA viruses infecting mammals, birds, reptiles and fish. Many paramyxoviruses are host-specific and several, such as measles virus, mumps virus, Nipah virus, Hendra virus and several parainfluenza viruses, are pathogenic for humans.

Significant differences in nucleocapsid morphology within the Paramyxoviridae
Journal of General Virology, 2002 Nucleocapsid (N) proteins from representative viruses of three genera within the Paramyxoviridae were expressed in insect cells using recombinant baculoviruses. RNA-containing structures, which appear morphologically identical to viral nucleocapsids, were isolated and subsequently imaged under a transmission electron microscope.

Problems of classification in the family Paramyxoviridae [PDF]
Archives of Virology, 2018 A number of unassigned viruses in the family Paramyxoviridae need to be classified either as a new genus or placed into one of the seven genera currently recognized in this family. Furthermore, numerous new paramyxoviruses continue to be discovered. However, attempts at classification have highlighted the difficulties that arise by applying historic ...

Differential Features of Fusion Activation within the Paramyxoviridae
Viruses, 2020 Paramyxovirus (PMV) entry requires the coordinated action of two envelope glycoproteins, the receptor binding protein (RBP) and fusion protein (F). The sequence of events that occurs during the PMV entry process is tightly regulated.

Melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) is involved in the innate immune response to Paramyxoviridae infection in vivo. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 The early host response to pathogens is mediated by several distinct pattern recognition receptors. Cytoplasmic RNA helicases including RIG-I and MDA5 have been shown to respond to viral RNA by inducing interferon (IFN) production.

Probable Human Infection with a Newly Described Virus in the Family Paramyxoviridae
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1998 After an apparently new virus in the family Paramyxoviridae was isolated from pigs in August 1997, an investigation was carried out to assess its risk for humans.

An Apparently New Virus (Family Paramyxoviridae) Infectious for Pigs, Humans, and Fruit Bats [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1998 We isolated an apparently new virus in the family Paramyxoviridae from stillborn piglets with deformities at a piggery in New South Wales, Australia. In 1997, the pregnancy rate and litter size at the piggery decreased markedly, while the proportion of ...

Healthy pangolin virome reveals mammalian viral diversity and zoonotic risk [PDF]
MicrobiomeBackground Pangolins, the world’s most trafficked mammals, have emerged as critical subjects of study due to their potential role as intermediate hosts for zoonotic viruses.

, 2011 Members of the family Paramyxoviridae cause most devastating diseases of animals and humans. In particular, the viruses causing rinderpest, canine distemper, Newcastle disease, measles, and mumps have arguably caused more morbidity and mortality than any other single group of related viruses in history.

Functional Analysis of the Fusion and Attachment Glycoproteins of Mojiang Henipavirus
Viruses, 2021 Mojiang virus (MojV) is the first henipavirus identified in a rodent and known only by sequence data, whereas all other henipaviruses have been isolated from bats (Hendra virus, Nipah virus, Cedar virus) or discovered by sequence data from material of ...
