Virus proteins, sizes and functional activities.

Protein size (kDa) mRNA Function1
1a 102.7-125.8 RNA-1 Mtr, helicase
2a 89.8-96.7 RNA-2 RdRp
3a 30.5-36.5 RNA-3 cell to cell movement
CP 19.8-26.2 sgRNA-42 encapsidation, movement
1

Functions of 1a and 2a are putative in most cases, by analogy to related viruses

2

The sgRNA for the CP derived from RNA-3 is encapsidated in all but the genus Oleavirus.
