Illustration of the domain-swapped dimer form of cyanovirin-N (CV-N), a virucidal (virus-killing) protein from the cyanobacterium (blue-green alga) Nostoc ellipsosporum. CV-N has been shown to be active against a number of human pathogens including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), respiratory syncytial virus and human parainfluenza virus. It is being investigated as a potential antiviral drug. | |
