Schematic of the RVFV genome. The L segment encodes the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) gene. The M segment encodes the precursor protein, which is cleaved into NSm, Gn and Gc. By using different AUG initiation sites, the M segment also codes for a precursor protein containing the 78 kD protein (which includes Gn) together with Gc. The S segment encodes for the N and NSs proteins in an ambisense manner.
