RSV M protein interacts with host cell membranes, holding together the virus’s filamentous structure and coordinating viral components and other proteins — including RSV F proteins.

This structure could be a target for researchers developing vaccines or treatments for RSV infection. RSV is a common respiratory virus that tends to cause mild symptoms.

You might not have heard of respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV. But it caused more than 100,000 global deaths in 2019, making it a leading cause of death in children under one year old.. In ...

Respiratory Syncytial Virus or RSV is one of the most common respiratory viruses circulating today. Often thought of as only being dangerous to babies and toddlers due to how often child-related ...

Many researchers are focused on altering the structure of the RSV F protein, which fuses the virus and host cell membranes together to get the virus’s genetic information into cells. But late-stage ...
