Human Metapneumovirus Infection among Children, Bangladesh
We confirmed circulation of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) among children with febrile and respiratory illness in an urban slum in Dhaka, Bangladesh, during active surveillance in 2001.

Passaging of a Newcastle disease virus pigeon variant in chickens results in selection of viruses with mutations in the polymerase complex enhancing virus replication and virulence [PDF]
Some Newcastle disease virus (NDV) variants isolated from pigeons (pigeon paramyxovirus type 1; PPMV-1) do not show their full virulence potential for domestic chickens but may become virulent upon spread in these animals.

Immunopathogenesis of Nipah Virus Infection and Associated Immune Responses
Pandemics in the last two centuries have been initiated by causal pathogens that include Severe Acute Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and Influenza (e.g., the H1N1 pandemic of 2009).

Genome-wide transposon mutagenesis of paramyxoviruses reveals constraints on genomic plasticity.
The antigenic and genomic stability of paramyxoviruses remains a mystery. Here, we evaluate the genetic plasticity of Sendai virus (SeV) and mumps virus (MuV), sialic acid-using paramyxoviruses that infect mammals from two Paramyxoviridae subfamilies ...

Structure of the Newcastle Disease Virus L protein in complex with tetrameric phosphoprotein
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) belongs to Paramyxoviridae and encodes a large protein (L) and phosphoprotein (P) for viral RNA synthesis. Here the authors present cryo-EM structures of the L-P complex, and propose a model of how RNA initiation/elongation ...

Detection and isolation of exotic Newcastle disease virus from field-collected flies. [PDF]
Flies were collected by sweep net from the vicinity of two small groups of "backyard" poultry (10-20 chickens per group) that had been identified as infected with exotic Newcastle disease virus (family Paramyxoviridae, genus avulavirus, ENDV) in Los ...

Henipaviruses—A constant threat to livestock and humans
In this review, we highlight the risk to livestock and humans from infections with henipaviruses, which belong to the virus family Paramyxoviridae. We provide a comprehensive overview of documented outbreaks of Nipah and Hendra virus infections affecting

Mediterranean Fin Whales (Balaenoptera physalus) Threatened by Dolphin MorbilliVirus [PDF]
During 2011-2013, dolphin morbillivirus was molecularly identified in 4 stranded fin whales from the Mediterranean Sea. Nucleoprotein, phosphoprotein, and hemagglutinin gene sequences of the identified strain were highly homologous with those of a ...

Investigations into the utility of real-time PCR for the detection, quantitation and characterisation of clinically relevant viruses [PDF]
The use of PCR as a tool for the diagnostic virology and viral research laboratories has greatly increased in recent years, however the use of conventional PCR and amplicon detection systems can be a complex and relatively slow process that increases the
