Correction for Dunlop et al., Live-cell 3D-SIM of Rift Valley fever virus NSs filaments reveals a polygon web architecture
This article serves as an official correction notice published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), specifically within Volume 123, Issue 18, dated May 2026. The correction pertains to a previously published study authored by Dunlop and colleagues, which investigated the structural characteristics of the Rift Valley fever virus. The original research utilized live-cell three-dimensional structured illumination microscopy (3D-SIM) to visualize the non-structural protein S (NSs) filaments associated with the virus. The study originally revealed that these filaments form a distinct polygon web architecture within infected cells. This specific entry does not present new experimental data or findings but rather addresses errors, clarifications, or amendments required for the scientific record regarding the aforementioned study. As a formal correction in a leading peer-reviewed academic journal, it ensures the accuracy and integrity of the published scientific literature concerning virology and advanced microscopy techniques. The notice is critical for researchers referencing the original work on Rift Valley fever virus morphology and host-pathogen interactions.
