Fig. 1. Schematic depiction of all the structural and non-structural proteins within the CHIKV polyprotein (UniProt ID: Q8JUX6 and Q8JUX5). CHIKV RNA 11811 bases (top bar, blue colour), translates into non-structural and structural precursor polyproteins of 2474 and 1244 residues, respectively, and after maturation by protease cleavage, it gives 4 non-structural proteins (left bar, yellow colour) and 5 structural proteins (right bar, green colour).
