Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Some of the important viruses in mammalian animals threaten the development of the economy and industry in many aspects. Although genetically related to other common viruses, those important viruses consist of unique characteristics in the process of infection, showing them out from the vast majority of viruses. However, insights into detailed infection, reproduction, and transmission pathways of the viruses, usually provide specific cell receptors and molecule targets for more powerful vaccination and antiviral medication, that leads to better control and prevention for these important mammalian viruses. Researches on the infection process, pathogenesis, and antiviral drugs of these viruses are suitable for this special issue.
