The Molecular Biology of Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) of the Genus Pneumovirus

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: The Viruses ((VIRS))

Abstract

The genus Pneumovirus of the family Paramyxoviridae contains pneumonia virus of mice (PVM), turkey rhinotracheitis virus (TRT), and the respiratory syncytial viruses of humans (RSV), cattle (BRSV), goats, and sheep (Kingsbury et al., 1978; Mclntosh and Chanock, 1985; Stott and Taylor, 1985; Spraker et al., 1986; Collins and Gough, 1988). Like other members of the paramyxovirus family, pneumoviruses are pleomorphic, enveloped, cytoplasmic viruses that contain a single strand of negative-sense genomic RNA (vRNA).
