Schematic representation of the 780032I strain genome organization. The 780032I genome is comprised of three major ORFs. ORF1 encodes a nonstructural polyprotein, ORF2 – a precursor of the virus capsid protein, VP1, and ORF3 – a minor capsid protein, VP2. Mature virus proteins are shown as rectangular boxes with calculated protein molecular masses indicated below. The putative borders of the virus mature nonstructural proteins are indicated with predicted cleavage sites and arrows. The E152/S site that is likely cleaved by the virus-encoded protease during capsid protein maturation is shown for the ORF2-encoded precursor. The 780032I predicted cleavage sites in the ORF1 were based on an alignment of VESV-like ORF1 polyprotein sequences with the established map of FCV [23].
