RFK7EE4X–Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus, computer illustration. This mosquito-borne virus can cause fatal brain and spinal cord inflammation in horses. It can also cause a fatal fever in humans. In viruses, the capsid is the protein shell that encloses the genetic material. A capsid consists of subunits called capsomeres that self-assemble to form the shell seen here. One of the functions of the capsid is to aid the transmission of the viral genetic material into host cells.

RFFXP67Y–Zika viruses infecting human embryo, computer illustration. This is an RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus from the Flaviviridae family. It is transmitted to humans via the bite of an infected Aedes sp. mosquito. It causes zika fever, a mild disease with symptoms including rash, joint pain and conjunctivitis. In 2015 a previously unknown connection between Zika infection in pregnant women and microcephaly (small head) in newborns was reported. This can cause miscarriage or death soon after birth, or lead to developmental delays and disorders.

RFFXP67K–Zika viruses infecting neurons, computer illustration. This is an RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus from the Flaviviridae family. It is transmitted to humans via the bite of an infected Aedes sp. mosquito. It causes zika fever, a mild disease with symptoms including rash, joint pain and conjunctivitis. The zika virus has been shown to replicate in nerve cells. This can lead to microcephaly (small head) in foetuses, which can cause miscarriage or death soon after birth, or lead to developmental delays and disorders. In children and adults it can lead to Guillain-Barre syndrome, which causes
