Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Measles is a viral disorder that produces rashes, fever, sore throat, headache, dry cough, and conjunctivitis. It is caused by measles virus which is a single stranded RNA virus with an enveloped helical capsid. Measles is also known as rubeola or red measles, which are the most contagious and one of the serious childhood diseases. Measles can be prevented by using safe and effective vaccination

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas.
