	Virus Evolution Workgroup: 1999 Workshop Abstract
		Paramyxoviridae and Rhabdoviridae are families of negative strand RNA viruses belonging to the order Mononegavirales.
		For the Paramyxoviridae the integrity of the overlapping reading frame that represents a derived state is generally maintained at the expense of the ancestral reading frame encoded by the same nucleotides.
		Thus elucidation of the molecular evolutionary dynamics of the Paramyxoviridae and Rhabdoviridae P gene multi-coding sequences illustrates one example of the profound effect of quasispecies population dynamics on RNA virus biology.

	SARS Virus First Discoverd In 1998 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		In Australia at the beginning of 1998, a group of microbiologists announced the discovery of a new virus, a member of the Paramyxoviridae family of viruses, which could be passed from animals to humans.
		We have isolated an apparently new virus in the family Paramyxoviridae from stillborn piglets with abnormalities of the brain, spinal cord, and skeleton at a commercial piggery with 2,600 sows in New South Wales, Australia.
		So, it seems that a virus of the Paramyxoviridae family that could infect humans was discovered over five years ago, but where's the coincidence in all this.

	An Apparently New Virus (Family Paramyxoviridae) Infectious for Pigs, Humans, and Fruit Bats
		We isolated an apparently new virus in the family Paramyxoviridae from stillborn piglets with deformities at a piggery in New South Wales, Australia.
		Viruses in the family Paramyxoviridae have been associated with new diseases in a variety of species, including humans, throughout the world.
		The virus grows in a wide range of cell types from many species, including porcine and human cells, and is nonhemadsorbing and nonhemagglutinating, using erythrocytes from several species; in this respect, the virus differs from La Piedad Michoacan paramyxovirus, which is hemagglutinating (13).

		Surveillance is proving to be sensitive, with suspected cases rapidly detected, reported to national authorities and WHO, and investigated according to the standard case definition.
		Viruses in the Paramyxoviridae family include many common, well-known agents associated with respiratory infections, such as respiratory syncytial virus, and childhood illnesses, including the viruses that cause mumps and measles.
		These related viruses are unusual in the family in that they can infect and cause potentially fatal disease in a number of animal hosts, including humans.

		One of the laboratories could identify one of these viruses as a virus that could be isolated with culture outside the patient.
		We are now closer to reality that this Paramyxoviridae virus has caused this, you have to realize this is a whole range of different viruses, from some that cause measles and mumps and from some that cause common respiratory infections in many people and which are sometimes even asymptomatic.
		So we have a Paramyxoviridae virus-like particle which is not any of the known Paramyxoviridae viruses.

		Soon after this incident, RSV was isolated from one child with pneumonia and one child with croup in Baltimore.
		The Paramyxoviridae family was reclassified into two subfamilies, Paramyxovirinae and Pneumovirinae, by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses in 1993.
		The following classification system is based on differences in the organization of the genome, the sequence relationship of the encoded proteins, the biological activity of the proteins, and morphological characteristics.

		In the 1940's (still pre-tissue culture, primitive immunology, few other viruses known), the characteristic property of haemagglutination was observed, followed by the discovery that the virus could be propagated in embryonated hens eggs (after adaptation) - this made influenza one of the best studied viruses during this period.
		More viruses with similar properties were added to the group, until it was split into two families in the 1970s, the Paramyxoviridae and the Orthomyxoviridae:
		It is believed that all (-)sense RNA viruses may have evolved from a common ancestor - all replicate their genomes by a common mechanism.
