24 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Hendra virus (HeV) is a zoonotic paramyxovirus belonging to the genus Henipavirus . HeV is highly pathogenic, and it can cause severe neurological and respiratory illnesses in both humans and animals, with an extremely high mortality rate of up to 70%. Among the genes that HeV encodes, the matrix (M) protein forms an integral part of the virion structure and plays critical roles in coordinating viral...
