Morbillivirus
Sign in to saveMorbillivirus is a genus of viruses in the order Mononegavirales, in the family Paramyxoviridae. Humans, dogs, cats, cattle, seals, and cetaceans serve as natural hosts. This genus contains 10 species, one of which is extinct. Diseases in humans associated with viruses classified in this genus include measles; in animals, they include acute febrile respiratory tract infection and Canine distemper. In 2013, a wave of increased death among the Common bottlenose dolphin population was attributed to morbillivirus.

Schemazeichnung eines Virions der Gattung Morbillivirus (Querschnitt) Genomkarte der Gattung Morbillivirus Morbillivirus ist eine Virus-Gattung der Familie Paramyxoviridae, Ordnung Mononegavirales. Es handelt sich um hochansteckende behüllte Viren mit einem helikalen Kapsid. Das Genom besteht aus einer einzelsträngigen, nicht-segmentierten RNA mit negativer Polarität (ss(−)RNA). Die Virushülle besitzt sogenannte Spikes, deren Glycoproteine Hämagglutinin-, Neuraminidase- und hämolytische Aktivität besitzen. Die Virus-Replikation vollzieht sich im Zytoplasma und an der Zellmembran infizierter Zellen. Morbilliviren sind meist empfindlich gegenüber Wärme, Austrocknung, fettlösenden Stoffen und den meisten Desinfektionsmitteln.
