Evolutionary trends of respiratory syncytial viruses: Insights from large-scale surveillance and molecular dynamics of G glycoprotein

Abstract excerpt

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an underlying cause of lower respiratory illnesses in children, elderly and immunocompromised adults. RSV contains multiple structural and non-structural proteins with two major glycoproteins that control the initial phase of infection, fusion glycoprotein and the attachment (G) glycoprotein. G protein attaches to the ciliated cells of airways initiating the infection....
