KSHV strains: the origins and global spread of the virus.

Seminars in cancer biology - 1 Jun 1999

Hayward G S

Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sequence analysis at five distinct loci across the 140, 000 bp genomes of more than 60 KSHV samples from KS and PEL tumors from North America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific revealed that they cluster into four major subtypes (A, B, C and D) that have close associations with the geographic and ethnic background of the patients. In particular, the ORF-K1 protein subtypes encoded at the...
