Respiratory syncytial virus assembles into structured filamentous virion particles independently of host cytoskeleton and related proteins.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a single-stranded RNA virus that assembles into viral filaments at the cell surface. Virus assembly often depends on the ability of a virus to use host proteins to accomplish viral tasks. Since the fusion protein cytoplasmic tail (FCT) is critical for viral filam...
