Nipah virus (NiV) caused several outbreaks in Asian countries, including the latest one from Kerala state of India. There is no drug available against NiV till now, despite its urgent requirement. are reports about anti-influenza viral Favipiravir, which has positively affected vitro models. In current work, we have provided a computational screening for inhibitors. Twenty-two designed compound...

The phosphoprotein (P) gene of most Paramyxovirinae encodes several proteins in overlapping frames: P and V, which share a common N-terminus (PNT), and C, which overlaps PNT. Overlapping genes are of particular interest because they encode proteins originated de novo, some of which have unknown structural folds, challenging the notion that nature utilizes only a limited, well-mapped area of fol...

Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) emerged in the last decade of the twentieth century as the causes of outbreaks of respiratory and neurological disease that infected a number of animal species. In 1994, HeV caused severe respiratory disease and the death of 13 horses and a horse trainer at a stable in Brisbane, Australia. Between September 1998 and April 1999, after spreading unrecognis...
