Now, Scripps Research scientists have analyzed the structure and stability of a critical RSV and hMPV protein to better design vaccines that target it. Their research, published in Nature ...

The genome organization of HMPV compared with that of APVc and HRSV. Genes encoding nonstructural proteins (yellow), polymerase-associated proteins (pink), glycoproteins (purple) and matrix ...

Investigators at the Vaccine Research Center (VRC) of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) have generated an hMPV fusion glycoprotein (“F protein”) stabilized in a ...

protein production, or DNA replication and kill them selectively without harming human cells. Viruses, including HMPV, differ significantly from bacteria in structure and function. They are much ...
