HHV8 Antibody / Human Herpes Virus 8

• Catalog Number: orb2644419
• Category: Antibodies
• Description: HHV8 encodes a latent nuclear antigen (LNA), which is the product of the viral gene orf 73. LNA is capable of forming a complex with retinoblastoma susceptibility gene product, which may be related to its oncogenic activity. HHV8 is associated with three different diseases observed in AIDS patients; kaposis sarcoma.
