Isolation of an atypical pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 in Poland

, 2011
Isolation of an atypical pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 in Poland In this study, a pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 (PPMV-1) isolated from a flock of ornamental pigeons in Poland in 2010 is described. The PPMV-1/Poland/H2/10 isolate showed the amino acid

Molecular detection of a novel paramyxovirus in fruit bats from Indonesia [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Fruit bats are known to harbor zoonotic paramyxoviruses including Nipah, Hendra, and Menangle viruses. The aim of this study was to detect the presence of paramyxovirus RNA in fruit bats from Indonesia. Methods: RNA samples were obtained from

Amino acid changes accumulated in the fusion protein allow neuropathogenic measles viruses to use a broad repertoire of host factors for cell fusion triggering

Journal of Virology
Measles virus (MeV), an enveloped RNA virus belonging to the genus Morbillivirus of the family Paramyxoviridae, is the causative agent of measles, an acute febrile illness with skin rash. MeV has two types of envelope glycoproteins: the hemagglutinin (H)

Nipah Virus-Like Particle Egress Is Modulated by Cytoskeletal and Vesicular Trafficking Pathways: a Validated Particle Proteomics Analysis

mSystems, 2019
Classified as a biosafety level 4 (BSL4) select agent, Nipah virus (NiV) is a deadly henipavirus in the Paramyxoviridae family, with a nearly 75% mortality rate in humans, underscoring its global and animal health importance.

Glycosylation as a strategic mechanism for measles virus and mumps virus immune evasion

Frontiers in Immunology
Glycosylation of viral surface proteins by host cell factors is one strategy paramyxoviruses employ to evade the host’s immune system during infection. Viral glycosylation thus has the potential for innate and adaptive immune modulation.

Human Metapneumovirus Attachment Protein Contributes to Neutrophil Recruitment into the Airways of Infected Mice

Viruses, 2017
Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a leading respiratory pathogen that causes lower respiratory tract infections worldwide. Acute HMPV infection induces an exacerbated inflammatory neutrophilic response leading to bronchiolitis and pneumonia.

Human parainfluenza virus 3 fusion protein cleavage: a key determinant of infection and spread

Journal of Virology
Human parainfluenza virus 3 (HPIV3) entry into target cells depends on a viral fusion complex composed of hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) and fusion protein (F).
