RSV virus fusion glycoprotein C015 / 6689
RSV virus fusion glycoprotein, molecular model. This is a fusion glycoprotein of human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). This glycoprotein is used by the virus to invade host cells. Treatments for the virus have been aimed at disrupting the effect of this glycoprotein. RSV is a pneumovirus, a type of paramyxovirus. It is a major cause of respiratory tract infections in humans, and is the most common cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia among infants

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of the RSV virus fusion glycoprotein C015/6689. This glycoprotein plays a crucial role in the invasion of host cells by the human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). With its black background, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of this disease-causing protein. RSV is a pneumovirus belonging to the paramyxovirus family and is notorious for causing respiratory tract infections in humans. Among infants, it stands as the leading cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia. Scientists have been tirelessly working on developing treatments that target and disrupt the effect of this specific glycoprotein to combat RSV. The detailed visualization presented here allows us to appreciate both its structural complexity and biological significance. The fusion glycoprotein acts as a key player in viral entry into host cells, making it an attractive target for therapeutic interventions. This artwork not only serves as a stunning visual representation but also highlights important aspects of virology, microbiology, and biochemistry. It reminds us how vital understanding these biomolecules at a molecular level is for combating infectious diseases like RSV.
