Anaglyphs: Rabies virion external appearance in 3D

This image is an anaglyph in which a stereo image pair is combined into a single image using colour to separate the two views. To see the 3D stereo effect, you will need to use red green colour filter glasses (red for your left eye and green for your right eye). Such glasses can be obtained from your optometrist or specialty supplier. It is worth obtaining high quality anaglyphic glasses to achieve the best possible sense of depth. Cheap filters can often be found in novelty 3-D books. SEE HOW ANAGLYPHS ARE MADE.

3D computer model of the Rabies viruses. Bullet shaped virion covered by glycoprotein knobs. Virus genome: ss -ve sense RNA combined with nucleoprotein to create a helical nucleocapsid. Matrix layer is sheathed by a viral envelope (derived from the host cell during budding). Rabies infects mammals, classically dogs (rabid or mad dogs).
