Molecular Features of the Measles Virus Viral Fusion Complex That Favor Infection and Spread in the Brain

Measles virus (MeV) bearing a single amino acid change in the fusion protein (F)—L454W—was isolated from two patients who died of MeV central nervous system (CNS) infection. This mutation in F confers an advantage over wild-type virus in the CNS, contributing to disease in these patients. Using muri...
