Abstract excerpt
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a distinct open reading frame called K15 at a position equivalent to the gene encoding LMP2A of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). K15 isolates from body cavity-based lymphoma (BCBL) cells exhibited a dramatic sequence variation and a complex splicing pattern. However, all K15 alleles are organized similarly with the potential SH2 and SH3 binding motifs in their...
