Metal Print : False-colour TEM of mumps virus particles
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
False-colour TEM of mumps virus particles
False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of 3 virions (virus particles) of the mumps virus (a member of the paramyxoviridae virus family). Individual virions possess a protein capsid (surrounding genetic information in form of RNA) which has helical symmetry (the particles themselves are roughly spherical). Surrounding the capsid is a protein envelope covered in projections made up of sub-units of haemagglutinin (permits agglutination of red blood cells) & enzyme neuraminidase. Symptoms of mumps include fever, headache & vomiting, preceding swelling of the parotid salivary glands in neck. Magnification: X 76, 500 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of the mumps virus, as captured by a false-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM). The image depicts three virions, or virus particles, of the mumps virus, which belongs to the paramyxoviridae virus family. Each individual virion possesses a protein capsid that encloses its genetic information in the form of RNA. The capsid exhibits helical symmetry and gives these spherical particles their distinct shape. Surrounding the capsid is a protein envelope adorned with projections composed of sub-units of haemagglutinin. These projections enable agglutination, or clumping together, of red blood cells. Additionally, an enzyme called neuraminidase is present on this envelope. Mumps infection manifests through various symptoms such as fever, headache, and vomiting. These initial signs are followed by swelling of the parotid salivary glands located in the neck region. The magnification used for this TEM image was X 76,500 at 35mm size—allowing us to observe even the tiniest details within these viral structures. This remarkable photograph from Science Photo Library not only provides valuable insights into the structure and characteristics of mumps viruses but also serves as a reminder of our ongoing battle against infectious diseases like mumps.
