Target Information

Ebola virus is an enveloped, negative-stranded RNA virus belonging to the family Filoviridae. It has a distinctive morphology similar to Marburg virus but lacks antigenic similarity. The viral genome is a nonsegmented RNA strand encoding seven structural proteins:

• NP (104 kDa)
• GP (125 kDa, glycosylated surface spike protein)
• L protein (180 kDa)
• VP40 (40 kDa)
• ViPX (35 kDa)
• VP30 (30 kDa)
• VP24 (24 kDa)

All proteins are encoded by monocistronic mRNA transcripts complementary to virion RNA.
