Rabies lyssavirus is used in research for viral neuronal tracing to establish synaptic connections and directionality of synaptic transmission. [45] Recent research is focused on stabilizing the trimeric pre-fusion form of the rabies virus glycoprotein (RABV-G), which is the most immunogenic conformation of the protein.
“By offering the vaccine at a minimal cost of $10, the agency aims to encourage a higher rate of vaccination within the community, ensuring that a larger number of dogs are protected against ...
