Lecture 32: Paramyxovirus
1. Parainfluenza – human PiV, Newcastle disease (NDV) in chicken and Sendai in mice (1,3 Respiro; 2,4 Rubula)
2. Rubulavirus – mump; 3. Morbillivirus – measles, canine distemper virus and rinderpest virus; 4. Pneumovirus –
human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and 5. Henipavirus – Hendra and nipavirus
Genome – conserved among different Paramyxo and rhabdovirus
• 3’ Leade seuece, itegeic seueces cotol tasciptio teiatio, polyadeylatio ad eiitatio
and trailer sequence behind L gene
• Virion – H (HN) is type II integral membrane protein and F is type I integral membrane protein (cleaved into 2
subunits, revealing fusion peptide)
• Replication – RNA sythesized 3’ to 5’ RNA sythesized, capped, polyadeylated all by L protein)
• NO ENDOCYTOSIS – PiV HN glycoprotein vind to sialic acid receptor, glycoprotein F mediates fusion (HN also)
PiV 1-4
• Acute respiratory infections (mild to bronchitis), croup (narrowing airways) and pneumonia
• Commonly infect children, transmitted by aerosols, virus limited to upper respiratory tract (lower more serious)
• Little serological variation between 1-4, rarer infection in adults (already immune)
Avian Paramyxovirus (PMV) – wild and domestic birds worldwide, PMV replicate in intestinal tract, shed in feces
Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) – contagious infection in poultry (240/8000 susceptible), cause 90% mortality, replication
at site of entry (respiratory or conjunctiva/eyes)
Mumps (rubulavirus)
• Haemagglutination an assay for virus – humans only natural reservoir for virus
• Transmission via saliva and respiratory secretions (less infectious than measles)
• Symptoms – swelling of paratid glands, replication of virus in epithelial cells of URT and lymph, then viraemia
- More serious – orchitis (20-30% males sterility), meningitis, encephalitis, pancreatitis, etc
• Pathology – MuV replicate in nasal mucosa and epithelial layer of respiratory tract (penetrates draining lymph
nodes after viremia → targets various organs (infection in salivary gland most predominant feature)
• Immune response – well-established 11days post-infection (neutralizing viral antibodies terminate viremia).
MuV grows in activated T lymphocytes not resting ones
• Prevention and control – MuV growth in eggs and chicken embryo cells, vaccines in trivalent MMR vaccine (live
attenuated MuV and measles and rubella virus)
