Introduction

Electron micrograph of the Ebola Zaire virus. This was the first photo ever taken of the virus, on 10/13/1976. By Dr. F.A. Murphy, now at U.C. Davis, then at the CDC.

Flavivirus

Figure 1. Flavivirus Structure. (A) Schematic representation of a flavivirus particle. Left: immature virion; right: mature virion. The unstructured spherical capsid contains the positive-stranded genomic RNA and multiple copies of the capsid protein C. Immature virions are covered by spiky complexes of 60 trimers of prM-E heterodimers. The proteolytic cleavage of prM results in the reorganization of the E proteins and the formation of smooth-surfaced particles covered with 90 E dimers. sE: soluble form of E that lacks the membrane anchor and an adjacent sequence element called ‘stem’. M: Membrane-associated cleavage product of prM. (B) Herringbone-like arrangement of90 E protein dimers at the virion surface as determined by cryo-electron microscopy .
