Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus-Encoded Protein Kinase and Its Interaction with K-bZIP
16 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
The oncogenic herpesvirus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, also identified as human herpesvirus 8, contains genes producing proteins that control transcription and influence cell signaling. Open reading frame 36 (ORF36) of this virus encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase, which is designated the viral protein kinase (vPK). Our recent efforts to elucidate the role of vPK in the viral life cycle have...
