K15 Protein of Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Is Latently Expressed and Binds to HAX-1, a Protein with Antiapoptotic Function
15 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
The Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) (or human herpesvirus 8) open reading frame (ORF) K15 encodes a putative integral transmembrane protein in the same genomic location as latent membrane protein 2A of Epstein-Barr virus. Ectopic expression of K15 in cell lines revealed the presence of several different forms ranging in size from full length, approximately 50 kDa, to 17 kDa. Of these different...
