Paramyxoviridae
General description of Paramyxoviridae
✔ cause a number of serious respiratory and/or systemic
diseases of humans, animals, and bird
✔ virions are enveloped, pleomorphic (filamentous or spherical; approximately 150
nm or more in diameter)
✔ contain a genome of linear, negative-sense, single- stranded RNA
✔ viral nucleocapsid (ND virus) has helical symmetry (herringbone pattern) and is
approximately 13–18 nm in diameter
✔ Paramyxoviridae are monotypic
pattern of the helical symmetry of the Paramyxoviridae nucleocapsid
herringbone pattern
glycoproteins present at the surface or spikes of the Paramyxoviridae
✔ Fusion protein
✔ Hemagglutinin
✔ Neuraminidase
Antigenic property of Genus Avulavirus
✔
Fusion (F) protein
✔ Haemagglutinin (HA)
protein
✔ Neuraminadase (NA)
protein
Antigenic property of Genus Morbillivirus
✔
Fusion (F) protein
✔ Haemagglutinin (HA)
protein
Antigenic property of Genus Pneumovirus
✓ Fusion (F) protein
network of rbc’s and viruses formed due to HA protein
Hemagglutination
In hemagglutination, network of rbc’s and viruses formed due to what protein?
Haemagglutinin (HA) protein
occurs when virus detaches from rbc’s due to neuraminadase (NA)
protein enzymes by breaking the contact of rbc and HA protein
Elution
Elution occurs when virus detaches from rbc’s due to ____________ enzymes by breaking the contact of rbc and HA protein
neuraminadase (NA)
protein
Paramyxoviridae are monotypic.
What does monotypic mean?
antibodies against one virus strain can neutralize all strains of the same species
is a highly contagious disease
of chickens that is characterized by respiratory distress, diarrhea, and neurological signs (tremors, wing or leg paresis, torticollis, circling, spasms), drop in egg production
Newcastle disease (ND)
Newcastle Disease is caused by what virus?
Avian paramyxovirus type 1 (APMV-1) or
Newcastle disease virus
First identified in Java, Indonesia (1926), and later in New Castle England
(1927)
Newcastle Disease
Other names of Newcastle Disease
✓ Ranikhet Disease
✓ Pseudofowl Pest, Avian
✓ Pneumoencephalitis
