Abstract
Many pathogens that cause chronic diseases in birds use the respiratory tract as a primary route of infection, and respiratory disorders are the main leading source of financial losses in the poultry business. Respiratory infections are a serious problem facing the poultry sector, causing severe economic losses. Avian influenza virus, Newcastle disease virus, infectious bronchitis virus, and avian pneumovirus are particularly serious viral respiratory pathogens. Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Staphylococcus, Bordetella avium, Pasteurella multocida, Riemerella anatipestifer, Chlamydophila psittaci, and Escherichia coli have been identified as the most serious bacterial respiratory pathogens in poultry. This review gives an updated summary, incorporating the latest data, about the evidence for the circulation of widespread, economically important poultry respiratory pathogens, with special reference to possible methods for the control and prevention of these pathogens.

Abstract
Background Newcastle disease is a devastating disease in poultry caused by virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV), a paramyxovirus endemic in many regions of the world despite intensive vaccination. Phylogenetic analyses reveal ongoing evolution of the predominant circulating genotype 2.VII, and the relevance of potential antigenic drift is under discussion. To investigate variation within neutralization-sensitive epitopes within the protein responsible for receptor binding, i.e. the Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase (HN) spike protein, we were interested in establishing genotype-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Methods An HN-enriched fraction of a gradient-purified NDV genotype 2.VII was prepared and successfully employed to induce antibodies in BalbC mice that recognize conformationally intact sites reactive by haemagglutination inhibition (HI). For subsequent screening of mouse hybridoma cultures, an NDV-ELISA was established that utilizes Concanavalin A (ConA-ELISA) coupled glycoproteins proven to present conformation-dependent epitopes. Results Six out of nine selected MAbs were able to block receptor binding as demonstrated by HI activity. One MAb recognized an epitope only present in the homologue virus, while four other MAbs showed weak reactivity to selected other genotypes. On the other hand, one broadly cross-reacting MAb reacted with all genotypes tested and resembled the reactivity profile of genotype-specific polyclonal antibody preparations that point to minor antigenic differences between tested NDV genotpyes. Conclusions These results point to the concurrent presence of variable and conserved epitopes within the HN molecule of NDV. The described protocol should help to generate MAbs against a variety of NDV strains and to enable in depth analysis of the antigenic profiles of different genotypes.

Comparative Loss-of-Function Screens Reveal ABCE1 as an Essential Cellular Host Factor for Efficient Translation of Paramyxoviridae and Pneumoviridae. mBio 2019; 10:mBio.00826-19.

Abstract
The Paramyxoviridae and Pneumoviridae families include important human and animal pathogens. To identify common host factors, we performed genome-scale siRNA screens with wild-type-derived measles, mumps, and respiratory syncytial viruses in the same cell line. A comparative bioinformatics analysis yielded different members of the coatomer complex I, translation factors ABCE1 and eIF3A, and several RNA binding proteins as cellular proteins with proviral activity for all three viruses. A more detailed characterization of ABCE1 revealed its essential role for viral protein synthesis. Taken together, these data sets provide new insight into the interactions between paramyxoviruses and pneumoviruses and host cell proteins and constitute a starting point for the development of broadly effective antivirals. Paramyxoviruses and pneumoviruses have similar life cycles and share the respiratory tract as a point of entry. In comparative genome-scale siRNA screens with wild-type-derived measles, mumps, and respiratory syncytial viruses in A549 cells, a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line, we identified vesicular transport, RNA processing pathways, and translation as the top pathways required by all three viruses. As the top hit in the translation pathway, ABCE1, a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporters, was chosen for further study. We found that ABCE1 supports replication of all three viruses, confirming its importance for viruses of both families. More detailed characterization revealed that ABCE1 is specifically required for efficient viral but not general cellular protein synthesis, indicating that paramyxoviral and pneumoviral mRNAs exploit specific translation mechanisms. In addition to providing a novel overview of cellular proteins and pathways that impact these important pathogens, this study highlights the role of ABCE1 as a host factor required for efficient paramyxovirus and pneumovirus translation.

Genome-wide analysis reveals class and gene specific codon usage adaptation in avian paramyxoviruses 1. INFECTION GENETICS AND EVOLUTION 2017; 50:28-37. [PMID: 28189889 DOI: 10.1016/j.meegid.2017.02.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2016] [Revised: 02/01/2017] [Accepted: 02/02/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
In order to characterize the evolutionary adaptations of avian paramyxovirus 1 (APMV-1) genomes, we have compared codon usage and codon adaptation indexes among groups of Newcastle disease viruses that differ in biological, ecological, and genetic characteristics. We have used available GenBank complete genome sequences, and compared codon usage of class I (CI-29 sequences containing 132,675 codons) and class II (CII-259 sequences containing 1,184,925 codons) APMV-1 genomes. We also compared available complete fusion protein gene sequences (CI-175 sequences containing 96,775 codons; CII-1166 sequences containing 644,798 codons). Adaptation to Gallus gallus was compared among the different classes of viruses, among different genomic regions based on transcriptional levels, or among the fusion gene. Interestingly, distinctive codon usage determined by differences in relative synonymous codon usage and by codon adaptation indexes was observed for the two APMV-1 classes and for different transcriptional regions within classes. Furthermore, differential use of the third codon position and preferential use of codon pairs were seen for the two different classes and for selected genotypes of class II despite the fact that there were no large differences in nucleotide composition. The data suggest that codon usage has changed significantly since the two APMV-1 classes diverged, however, these changes are not significantly pronounced among viruses of the same genotype, suggesting that codon adaptation in APMV-1 occurs through a slow evolutionary process.

Abstract
Newcastle disease (ND) is a contagious disease that affects most species of birds. Its causative pathogen, Newcastle disease virus (NDV), also exhibits considerable oncolytic activity against mammalian cancers. A better understanding of the pathogenesis of NDV will help us design efficient vaccines and novel anticancer strategies. GW3965, a widely used synthetic ligand of liver X receptor (LXR), induces the expression of LXRs and its downstream genes, including ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1). ABCA1 regulates cellular cholesterol homeostasis. Here, we found that GW3965 inhibited NDV infection in DF-1 cells. It also inhibited NF-κB activation and reduced the upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines induced by the infection. Further studies showed that GW3965 exerted its inhibitory effects on virus entry and replication. NDV infection increased the mRNA levels of several lipogenic genes but decreased the ABCA1 mRNA level. Overexpression of ABCA1 inhibited NDV infection and reduced the cholesterol content in DF-1 cells, but when the cholesterol was replenished, NDV infection was restored. GW3965 treatment prevented cholesterol accumulation in the perinuclear area of the infected cells. In summary, our studies suggest that GW3965 inhibits NDV infection, probably by affecting cholesterol homeostasis.

Development of strand-specific real-time RT-PCR to distinguish viral RNAs during Newcastle disease virus infection. ScientificWorldJournal 2014; 2014:934851.

Abstract
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) causes large losses in the global fowl industry. To better understand NDV replication and transcription cycle, quantitative detection methods for distinguishing NDV genomic RNA (gRNA), antigenomic RNA (cRNA), and messenger RNA (mRNA) in NDV-infected cells are indispensible. Three reverse transcription primers were designed to specifically target the nucleoprotein (NP) region of gRNA, cRNA, and NP mRNA, and a corresponding real-time RT-PCR assay was developed to simultaneously quantify the three types of RNAs in NDV-infected cells. This method showed very good specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility. The detection range of the assay was between 5.5 × 102 and 1.1 × 109 copies/μL of the target gene. These methods were applied to investigate the dynamics of the gRNA, cRNA, and mRNA synthesis in NDV La Sota infected DF-1 cells. The results showed that the copy numbers of viral gRNA, cRNA, and NP mRNA all exponentially increased in the beginning. The viral RNA copy number then plateaued at 10'h postinfection and gradually decreased from 16 h postinfection. No synthesis priority was observed between replication (gRNA and cRNA amounts) and transcription (mRNA amounts) during NDV infection. However, the cRNA accumulated more rapidly than gRNA, as the cRNA copy number was three- to tenfold higher than gRNA starting from 2 h postinfection. Conclusion. A real-time RT-PCR for absolute quantitation of specific viral RNA fragments in NDV-infected cells was developed for the first time. The development of this assay will be helpful for further studies on the pathogenesis and control strategies of NDV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Newcastle disease represents as one of the most infectious viral disease, which afflicts almost every species of the birds. The causative agent of the disease is a single-stranded RNA virus with rapid replication capability. OBJECTIVE This study was performed to evaluate the comparative anti-viral efficacy and toxicity of Glycyrrhiza glabra aqueous extract and ribavirin against the Newcastle disease virus. MATERIALS AND METHODS The embryonated eggs were divided into six groups (A, B, C, D, E and F). Groups A, B, C, and D were further subdivided into three subgroups. The virus was identified by hemagglutination inhibition test. Spot hemagglutination test and viability of embryos were also evaluated. Three different concentrations i-e., 30 mg/100 ml, 60 mg/100 ml, and 120 mg/100 ml of the Glycyrrhiza aqueous extract and 10 μg/ml, 20 μg/ml, and 40 μg/ml ribavirin in deionized water were evaluated for their toxicity and anti-viral activity in the embryonated eggs. RESULTS 60 mg/100 ml concentration of Glycyrrhiza extract did not produce any toxicity in the embryonated eggs and showed anti-viral activity against the virus. Similarly, 20 μg/ml ribavirin was non-toxic in the embryonated eggs and contained anti-viral activity. CONCLUSION It may conclude from the presented study that 60 mg/100 ml Glycyrrhiza extract inhibits replication of Newcastle disease virus and is non-toxic in the embryonated eggs. So, Glycyrrhiza glabra extract may be further evaluated in future to determine the potentially active compounds for their anti-viral activity against Newcastle disease virus. Furthermore, the mechanism of action of these active phytochemicals as an antiviral agent would be helpful to elucidate the pathogenesis of the disease.

Abstract
The role of N-linked glycosylation of the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) fusion (F) protein in viral replication and pathogenesis was examined by eliminating potential acceptor sites using a reverse genetics system for the moderately pathogenic strain Beaudette C (BC). The NDV-BC F protein contains six potential acceptor sites for N-linked glycosylation at residues 85, 191, 366, 447, 471, and 541 (sites Ng1 to Ng6, respectively). The sites at Ng2 and Ng5 are present in heptad repeat (HR) domains HR1 and HR2, respectively, and thus might affect fusion. Each N-glycosylation site was eliminated individually by replacing asparagine (N) with glutamine (Q), and a double mutant (Ng2 + 5) involving the two HR domains was also made. Each mutant was successfully recovered by reverse genetics except for the one involving Ng6, which is present in the cytoplasmic domain. All of the F proteins expressed by the recovered mutant viruses were efficiently cleaved and transported to the infected-cell surface. None of the individual mutations affected viral fusogenicity, but the double mutation at Ng2 and Ng5 in HR1 and HR2 increased fusogenicity >12-fold. The single mutations at sites Ng1, Ng2, and Ng5 resulted in modestly reduced multicycle growth in vitro. These three single mutations were also the most attenuating in eggs and 1-day-old chicks and were associated with decreased replication and spread in 2-week-old chickens. In contrast, the combination of the mutations at Ng2 and Ng5 yielded a virus that, compared to the BC parent, replicated >100-fold more efficiently in vitro, was more virulent in eggs and chicks, replicated more efficiently in chickens with enhanced tropism for the brain and gut, and elicited stronger humoral cell responses. These results illustrate the effects of N-glycosylation of the F protein on NDV pathobiology and suggest that the N-glycans in HR1 and HR2 coordinately downregulate viral fusion and virulence.

Abstract
The discovery of a new class of cytosolic receptors recognizing viral RNA, called the RIG-like receptors (RLRs), has revolutionized our understanding of the interplay between viruses and host cells. A tremendous amount of work has been accumulating to decipher the RNA moieties required for an RLR agonist, the signal transduction pathway leading to activation of the innate immunity orchestrated by type I interferon (IFN), the cellular and viral regulators of this pathway, and the viral inhibitors of the innate immune response. Previous reviews have focused on the RLR signaling pathway and on the negative regulation of the interferon response by viral proteins. The focus of this review is to put this knowledge in the context of the virus replication cycle within a cell. Likewise, there has been an expansion of knowledge about the role of innate immunity in the pathophysiology of viral infection. As a consequence, some discrepancies have arisen between the current models of cell-intrinsic innate immunity and current knowledge of virus biology. This holds particularly true for the nonsegmented negative-strand viruses (Mononegavirales), which paradoxically have been largely used to build presently available models. The aim of this review is to bridge the gap between the virology and innate immunity to favor the rational building of a relevant model(s) describing the interplay between Mononegavirales and the innate immune system.

Abstract
Naturally occurring Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strains vary greatly in virulence, ranging from no apparent infection to severe disease causing 100% mortality in chickens. The viral determinants of NDV virulence are not completely understood. Cleavage of the fusion protein is required for the initiation of infection, and it acts as a determinant of virulence. The attachment protein HN was found to play a minor role in virulence. In this study, we have evaluated the role of the internal proteins (N, P, and L) in NDV virulence by using a chimeric reverse-genetics approach. The N, P, and L genes were exchanged individually between an avirulent NDV strain, LaSota, and an intermediate virulent NDV strain, Beaudette C (BC), and the N and P genes were also exchanged together. The recovered chimeric viruses were evaluated for their pathogenicity in the natural host, chickens. Our results showed that the pathogenicities of N and P chimeric viruses were similar to those of their respective parental viruses, indicating that the N and P genes probably play minor roles in virulence. However, replacement of the L gene of BC with that of LaSota significantly increased the pathogenicity of the L-chimeric virus, suggesting that the L gene probably contributes to the virulence of NDV. The L-chimeric BC virus was found to replicate at a 100-fold-higher level than its parental virus in chicken brain, suggesting that the increase in pathogenicity may be due to the increased replication level of the chimeric virus. Our findings offer new insights into the pathogenesis of NDV infection.

Abstract
The effect of mutations of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) fusion (F) gene, hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) gene, and phosphoprotein (P) gene and HN chimeras between the virulent Beaudette C and low virulence LaSota strains on pathogenesis and pathogenicity was examined in fully susceptible chickens. A virulent F cleavage site motif within a LaSota backbone increased pathogenicity and severity of clinical disease. A LaSota HN within a Beaudette C backbone decreased pathogenicity indices and disease severity. A Beaudette C HN within a LaSota backbone did not change either pathogenicity indices or severity of disease in chickens. Loss of glycosylation at site 4 of the HN or modified P gene of Beaudette C decreased pathogenicity indices and caused no overt clinicopathologic disease in chickens. Both pathogenicity indices and clinicopathologic examination demonstrated that the F, HN, and P genes of NDV collectively or individually can contribute to viral virulence.

Abstract
With the advent of subunit vaccines for microbial diseases it is becoming increasingly important to be able to differentiate naturally infected animals from those vaccinated with the corresponding subunit vaccine. For avian viruses such as Newcastle disease virus (NDV), a whole virus-based ELISA cannot make such a differential diagnosis since in both cases the antisera would react with the whole virus. The nucleocapsid protein (NP) gene of the NDV Hitchner B1 strain was cloned, sequenced and expressed to develop a differential ELISA. The B1 NP had 95.7 and 96.1% amino acid identities with the NP of the d26 and Ulster 2C strains, respectively. The B1 NP expressed in a baculovirus expression vector (recNP) was the expected size and reacted with NDV-specific antibodies (Ab) in Western blots and by radioimmunoprecipitation. The ELISA using recNP-coated wells, tested on serum samples from flocks pretested with a commercial NDV kit gave results corresponding to those of the kit. Furthermore, use of both the renNP-based ELISA and a whole virus ELISA allowed the differentiation of birds vaccinated and a NDV haemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) expressing fowlpox virus from birds infected with NDV. This provides the basis for establishing an ELISA that discriminates between the antibody response to a recombinant fowlpox vaccine (expressing NDV HN protein) and that to live and inactivated NDV.

Abstract
We characterized the physical and biological properties of a 14-residue amphipathic sequence called SFP (for short fusogenic peptide). At acidic pH, this short synthetic peptide interacts with various phospholipidic monolayers. These interactions were correlated with a pH-dependent conformational transition of SFP resulting in a hydrophobic alpha-helical structure. The hemolysis assay showed a pH-dependent weak membrane destabilizing activity of SFP. However, membrane anchoring of SFP through a covalently bound myristic acid enhanced by 1000-fold its membrane-destabilizing power. Moreover, SFP covalently bound to fluorescent-labeled liposomes induced a pH-dependent mixing of both membranes. SFP, a small synthetic peptide, is thus able to mimick many aspects of viral protein-induced membrane fusion: conformational change, membrane destabilization, membrane anchoring and finally pH-dependent lipid mixing.

Abstract
The complete amino-acid sequence of viral fusion proteins has been analyzed by the Eisenberg procedure. The region surrounding the cleavage site contains a highly hydrophilic region immediately followed by a membrane-like region. Since the effective cleavage between these two domains seems required to expose the fusogenic domain (located at the N-terminal sequence of the transmembrane like region) which is assumed to interact with the lipid membrane of the host cell, we have focused our analysis on the conformation and mode of insertion of this membrane-like domain in a lipid monolayer. It was inserted as an alpha-helical structure into a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer and its orientation at the lipid/water interface was determined using a theoretical analysis procedure allowing the assembly of membrane components. For each viral protein sequence these N-terminal helical segments oriented obliquely with respect to the lipid/water interface. This rather unusual orientation is envisaged as a prerequisite to membrane destabilization and fusogenic activity.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA copies of the mRNA encoding the Newcastle disease virus (NDV), strain AV, phosphoprotein (P) was determined. The sequence of 1443 nucleotides contains one long open reading frame which could encode a protein with a molecular weight of 42,126, and two smaller open reading frames which could encode proteins with molecular weights of 11,178 and 13,935. Full-length cDNA clones were constructed in an SP6 vector, mRNA was transcribed in a cell-free system using the SP6 polymerase, and the mRNA was translated in a wheat germ cell-free extract. The P mRNA directed the synthesis of, primarily, four products. One, with a molecular weight of 53,000 Da, comigrated with authentic P protein made in infected cells and was precipitable with antisera with specificity for the NDV P protein. The other products of the cell-free reaction had molecular weights of 38,000, 29,000 and 12,000. The 29,000- and the 38,000-Da polypeptides were also precipitable with anti-P protein antibody. Using truncated cDNA clones, evidence is presented that the 38,000- and 29,000-Da proteins are derived from initiation at AUG triplets in the same reading frame as the P protein. Infected cells also contain these polypeptides which may be analogous to C proteins of other paramyxoviruses. Thus the NDV P protein mRNA is different than most other paramyxovirus P protein mRNAs which are translated in two different reading frames to yield the P and C proteins.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of DNA clones complementary to the genomic RNA of an extremely avirulent strain D26 of Newcastle disease virus was analyzed, and the sequence of 2102 nucleotides directly following F gene reported previously (Sato et al., 1987, Virus Res. 7, 241-255), and corresponding to HN0 gene was determined. A long open reading frame coding for the HN0 peptide of 616 amino acid residues was found in this sequence. It was flanked by the consensus sequences N1 and N2 (Ishida et al., 1986, Nucleic Acids Res. 14, 6551-6564), and the former was shown by the primer extension method to serve as the transcriptional initiation site. The deduced amino acid sequence of the HN0 peptide was highly homologous to that of the HN peptides of strains Beaudette C and B1, but had a carboxyl terminal extension of 39 amino acid residues with a potential glycosylation site in it. The terminal extension is likely to be excised during the processing, and this is consistent with the observation that unglycosylated HN0 is larger in size than unglycosylated HN. A microheterogeneity among the cDNA clones in the nucleotide sequence was also noted which may be relevant to the synthesis of a small amount of an HN-sized peptide in strain D26-infected cells.

Abstract
A cyclic pattern of virus production was observed when human parainfluenza virus 3 (HPIV3) was serially passaged nine times in LLC-MK2 cells. Viruses produced from serial passages 8 and 9 interfered with the replication of standard HPIV3. Three subgenomic RNA species (DI-1, DI-2, and DI-3) and virus genomic RNA were detected in the progeny virions produced from cells mixedly infected with standard virus and virus from either serial passages 5 or 8. Northern blot analysis with probes representing all six HPIV3 structural protein genes revealed that DI-1 and DI-2 RNAs contain sequences from the 5' end of the standard virus genome. DI-1 RNA contains L, HN, and F specific sequences, while DI-2 RNA contains only L and HN sequences. DI-3 RNA did not hybridize with any of the probes used. The possibility that DI-3 RNA contains sequences from the 5' end of the standard virus genome is discussed. These results demonstrate that 5' defective interfering particles are generated during serial passage of HPIV3.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA copies of the mRNA encoding the Newcastle disease virus (NDV), strain A-V, hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) protein was determined. A single open reading frame in the sequence encodes a protein of 570 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 62,280. The predicted protein sequence contains only one obvious potential membrane spanning region, located 27 amino acids from the amino terminus of the sequence. The predicted sequence contains 6 glycosylation sites and 14 cysteine residues. Comparison of the NDV HN protein sequence with three other paramyxovirus HN protein sequences reveals two regions that have homologies in all four sequences. The conserved cysteine residues are clustered in these two regions. One conserved region is located near the middle of the predicted sequence while the second region is in the carboxy terminal third of the molecule. The presence of conserved regions suggests the importance of these areas of the molecule in the structure or function of the protein.

Abstract
Molecular cloning of most if not all of the genome of an avirulent strain D26 of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) was carried out. cDNA clones were aligned by mutual hybridization and restriction map analysis. The nucleotide sequence of 3672 bases which completed the partial sequence of P gene reported in our previous paper (Ishida, N. et al., 1986, Nucleic Acids Res. 14, 6551-6564), and also covered M and F genes, was determined. Each gene contained one long open reading frame which could code for polypeptides of 395, 364, and 553 amino acid residues, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequences of P and M gene products showed little homology to those of other paramyxoviruses. In contrast, comparison of the amino acid sequence of the F gene product revealed highly conserved regions including the amino terminal sequence of the F1 portion following the putative processing site. There was only one basic amino acid residue at the putative processing site, which would explain the low virulence of this strain.

Abstract
The synthesis of six to seven polycistronic transcripts of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in BHK cells was detected by Northern hybridization using cDNA clones generated by reverse transcription of five NDV mRNAs. Within the molecular weight range resolved by the gel electrophoresis system employed, four of the transcripts were suggested to be distronic, containing sequences of two genes, NP-P, P-M, M-F0 and F0-HN, respectively. In addition, tricistronic molecules of M-F0-HN and possibly of NP-P-M as well as P-M-F0 appeared to develop, although they were very low in amount. These data suggest a gene order of NP-P-M-F0-HN on the NDV genome. The polycistronic as well as monocistronic transcripts were generated with an almost constant proportion in amount throughout the virus replication. Further, at least several of them were also generated under the conditions where only the primary transcription was allowed by inhibiting de novo protein synthesis. Therefore, it appears likely that there is no distinct temporal control in NDV genome expression.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of cloned cDNA copies of the mRNA encoding the Newcastle disease virus fusion protein was determined. A single open reading frame in the sequence encodes a hydrophobic protein of 553 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 58 978. The previously determined protein sequence of the amino terminus of the F1 (Richardson, G.D. et al. (1980) Virology 105, 205-222) was located within the predicted protein sequence. The predicted protein sequence contains a hydrophobic stretch of 29 amino acids near the carboxy terminal end and likely represents the membrane spanning region of the protein. The F2 portion of the sequence contains one glycosylation site while F1 contains four which are potentially used. The predicted sequence contains 13 cysteine residues. Comparison of the NDV fusion protein sequence with three other paramyxovirus fusion protein sequences reveals little homology common to all four viruses except for the amino terminus of the F1 proteins. However, the positions of the cysteine residues within the sequence are conserved, particularly among the members of the paramyxovirus subgroup, suggesting the importance of disulfide bond formation in the conformation of paramyxovirus fusion proteins.
