In this article we will discuss about the structure of rabies viruses (explained with diagram). Rhabdo-viruses have a unique bullet-shaped appearance measuring about 180 × 75 nm. They have an envelope with prominent spikes on surface but not very variable in appearance. Spikes are made up of G protein that haem-agglutinate RBCs. The envelope is […]

In this article we will discuss about the replication cycle of rabies viruses. The infection process is initiated with adsorption of virus on the host cell. Interaction takes place between spike G protein and specific cell surface receptors. It results in fusion of the rabies virus envelope with the host cell membrane. After adsorption, the […]
