A Filoviridae a vírusok egyik rendszertani családja, az ide tartozó fajok a filovírusok. Nevüket megnyúlt, fonálszerű (a latin filum fonalat jelent) alakjukról kapták. Genomjuk egyszálú, negatív-szenz RNS-ből áll. A filovírusok a legnagyobb ismert RNS-vírusok közé tartoznak.
The Filoviridae consists of 2 genera: Ebolavirus (consisting of 5 species) and Marburgvirus (consisting of 2 species). The specific vectors of these viruses have not been confirmed, but fruit bats are the prime candidates; thus, Filoviridae are not arboviruses. Human-to-human transmission of Ebola virus and Marburg virus occurs readily.
A vírus szubmikroszkopikus biológiai organizmus, amely nem sejtes szerveződésű és csak parazitaként az élőlények sejtjeiben képes szaporodni. Minden életformának, növényeknek, állatoknak, gombáknak, egysejtű eukariótáknak és baktériumoknak megvannak a vírusos fertőzéseik. [1]

Apr 25, 2019 · Members of the family Filoviridae produce variously shaped, often filamentous, enveloped virions containing linear non-segmented, negative-sense RNA genomes of 15–19 kb. Several filoviruses (e.g., Ebola virus) are pathogenic for humans and are highly virulent.
Aug 8, 2010 · Description and Significance. The name "filoviridae" comes from the latin filo, meaning "threadlike." Not much is known about filoviruses, since their highly pathogenic nature makes them difficult to study. Filoviruses are classified as biosafety level 4 by the CDC, meaning they are some of the deadliest viruses known.
