Introduction
Mumps virus is a member of the Rubulavirus genus in the Paramyxoviridae family. Mumps is an enveloped negative-stranded RNA virus with an irregular spherical shape ranging in size from 100 to 600 nm. The viral genome is contained in a helical nucleocapsid enclosed in a trilayered envelope studded with glycoproteins possessing hemagglutinin and neuraminidase (HN protein) and cell fusion (F-protein) activities. The virus contains seven structural proteins, including nucleocapsid-associated protein (NP), a (V and I)/phosphoprotein (P), membrane or matrix protein (M), a high-molecular-weight protein (L), SH protein, HN protein, and F protein. There is one serotype of virus. The gene for the SH protein is the most variable part of the mumps virus genome and amplification of a sequence of the SH gene region by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to classify the virus into 12 genotypes.
