Rabies Virus Monochrome #18 bold white sanguine

Rabies virus. Rabies is an extremely dangerous disease, often transmitted by the bite of an infected animal such as a dog or a bat. The virus particle shown here is a typical bullet shape and is covered by glycoprotein spikes. The spikes insert into the lipid membrane or viral envelope. Hidden beneath the membrane lies the helical nucleoprotein, which contains the viral RNA.
