Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) remains a leading cause of severe lower respiratory tract disease in infants, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals. Over the past decade, advances in structural biology, particularly cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), have transformed our understanding of RSV architecture, dynamics, and the mechanisms of entry and replication. High-resolution structures of the prefusion F glycoprotein (pre-F) and its complexes with neutralizing antibodies established the rationale for structure-guided antigen stabilization and directly enabled the development of the first licensed RSV vaccines. Complementary structures of the ribonucleoprotein, polymerase complex, and matrix lattice have broadened therapeutic targets beyond F. Here, we summarize these structural advances; review current structure-guided vaccine, antibody, and antiviral development efforts; and highlight priorities for next-generation vaccines and therapeutics.
