The genome consists of two open reading frames (ORFs) separated by an untranslated junction (J). The first ORF encodes for a polyprotein and acts as a precursor of the non-structural proteins (nsP1, nsP2, nsP3 and nsP4). The second ORF encodes the structural proteins (Capsid, E3, E2, 6K and E1). The genome has 5` cap and 3` poly A tail.
