Muleshoe virus

Muleshoe virus (MULEV) is a novel, single-stranded, enveloped, negative-sense RNA orthohantavirus.[1]

Virus classification
Group:
Group V ((−)ssRNA)
Order:
Bunyavirales
Family:
Hantaviridae
Genus:
Orthohantavirus
Species:
Muleshoe virus

Natural reservoir

Muleshoe virus was isolated from two cotton rats (Sigmodon hispidus) in Deaf Smith County, Texas in 1995 following a fatal case of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in a child. The field investigation yielded the novel Muleshoe virus. The source of HPS in the child was determined to be Sin Nombre virus.

Virology

The complete genomic sequence was determined for MULEV and found to be phylogenetically closest in structure to Bayou virus.

gollark: ZJ?
gollark: So I think it's not actually Turing-complete but interesting at least.

gollark: I'll wrap the shellscript in a shellscript which unzips it. Brilliant.
