Target Information

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a member of the Paramyxoviridae family, subfamily Pneumovirinae, that causes common respiratory tract infections such as measles and mumps.
Its genome consists of single-stranded, negative-sense RNA encoding three envelope glycoproteins: a small hydrophobic (SH) protein of unknown function, a major glycoprotein (G) known as the attachment protein, and a fusion (F) protein.
The 63 kD RSV fusion protein of the RSS 2 strain (subtype A) directs fusion of viral and cellular membranes, resulting in viral penetration, and can direct fusion of infected cells with adjoining cells, forming syncytia or multinucleated giant cells.
RSV typically produces mild symptoms in adults but is one of the leading causes of lower respiratory tract infections and hospital visits during infancy and childhood.
