Genome Organization

The fish rhabdovirus, IHNV, has a bullet-shaped virion containing a non-segmented, negative-sense, single-stranded RNA genome of approximately 11,000 nucleotides that encodes six proteins in the following order: a nucleoprotein (N), a phosphoprotein (P), a matrix protein (M), a glycoprotein (G), a nonvirion protein (NV), and a polymerase (L).

To date, the complete genome sequence has been available for only 3 IHNV isolates.

Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    “Your organization is not a praying institution. It’s a fighting institution. It’s an educational institution right along industrial lines. Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living!”
