Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to the latent nuclear antigen-1 molecule of HHV8.

Localization

Nuclear

Specificity

This antibody reacts with ORF-73 of human Herpes virus 8 (HHV8). HHV8 is the likely etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). 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.

Background: ORF73 HHV8

HHV8 has been found to be associated with three different diseases observed in AIDS patients; kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma (which is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma affecting the body cavities) and multicentric Castleman's disease. To date there is much evidence to support a direct role for HHV8 in kaposi's sarcoma.
