Abstract excerpt
The genomes of several human herpesviruses, including Kaposi sarcoma (KS) herpesvirus (KSHV), display surprisingly high levels of both genetic diversity and clustered subtyping at certain loci. We have been interested in understanding this phenomenon with the hope that it might be a useful diagnostic tool for viral epidemiology, and that it might provide some insights about how these large viral genomes evolve...
