High Conservation of the Human Metapneumovirus Fusion Protein in Contemporary Global Sequences Supports Its Continued Relevance for Therapeutic and Prophylactic Consideration
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is associated with severe disease in young children, older adults, and medically high-risk individuals. The hMPV F protein is highly immunogenic and a well-established target of neutralizing antibodies. In-depth hMPV surveillance data remain limited and may provide valuable insight into the...
