Scientists have long attempted to create vaccines that coax the immune system into recognizing the fusion (F) proteins present on the surfaces of RSV, hMPV and related viruses. These proteins play ...

RSV F proteins sit on the viral surface, ready to engage with host cell receptors and regulate the virus's fusion and entry into the host cell. The scientists' images reveal that in RSV ...

Most assays target the RSV fusion surface glycoprotein. The color change is mediated by the binding of viral protein from the sample to the test's RSV-specific antibodies. The apparatus ...
