Muleshoe virus

by - November 17, 2018



Muleshoe virus (MULEV) is a novel, single-stranded, enveloped, negative-sense RNA hantavirus.

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.
