Figure 2. The three genomic RNA segments (L, M, and S) of an
Andes virus and their encoding proteins. Their sequence accession
numbers in GenBank are NC003468, NC003467, and
NC003466.38 Brown lines represent the 5′-methylated
cap and some nucleotides transferred from host cell mRNAs to the viral
mRNAs. ORF: open reading frame. UTR: untranslated region.
