title: Replication of paramyxoviruses.
abstract: Molecular studies on the replication of paramyxoviruses have undergone a revolution in recent years due to the development of techniques that permit the manipulation of their genomes as cDNA. This has led to new information on the structure-function organization of the viral proteins involved in genome expression, as well as dissection of the cis-acting template sequences that regulate transcription and replication. Studies using recombinant viruses have also provided new insights into the role of the accessory proteins (V, C, M1/M2) in both for virus growth in cultured cells and pathogenesis in animals.
