| Description |
The viruses in the family Arenaviridae are round, oval, or pleomorphic particles with hollow club-shaped projections on their surface. The interior of the virion is relatively structureless, except for the nucleocapsid and a variable number of dense granules that are host-cell ribosomes incorporated into the virus. These unique structures, which resemble grains of sand under the electron microscope, are responsible for the family name Arenaviridae (from the Latin arenosus, meaning ""sandy""). |
