This group of RNA Virus es includes the '' Rabies Virus '' traditionally associated with the disease. Viruses typically have either helical or cubic symmetry. Lyssaviruses have helical symmetry, so their infectious particles are approximately cylindrical in shape. This is typical of plant-infecting viruses. Human-infecting viruses more commonly have cubic symmetry and take shapes approximating Regular Polyhedra . The Lyssaviruses are the only viruses known to travel along the nerves after infection.
