A schematic cutaway of an enveloped virion from the Influenza virus (family Orthomyxoviridae) shows a lipid bilayer envelope studded with HA (hemagglutinin) and NA (neuraminidase) glycoprotein spikes, an underlying M1 (matrix protein 1) layer, and eight RNP (ribonucleoprotein) complexes containing negative-sense RNA (ribonucleic acid). In hierarchical terms, genome-bearing RNPs lie within the nucleocapsid of the virion. In virology and microbiology, these structures mediate host-cell attachment, membrane fusion, and genome transcription and replication. The entity depicted is a virus particle (virion).
