Characterization of BoHV-4 ORF45 [PDF]
Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a Gammaherpesvirus belonging to the Rhadinovirus genus. The bovine is BoHV-4's natural host, and the African buffalo is BoHV-4's natural reservoir.

Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus ORF61 protein sequesters APOBEC3B in filamentous aggregates [PDF]
Herpesviruses are large DNA viruses that encode homologs of cellular enzymes. The viral ribonucleotide reductase, which consists of large R1 and small R2 subunits, is required for deoxyribonucleotide synthesis.

Inhibition of type I interferon signaling is a conserved function of gamma-herpesvirus-encoded microRNAs [PDF]
Herpesviruses encode multiple factors that disarm innate immune signaling to evade host anti-viral responses. Several viral microRNAs expressed by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) disrupt the induction of type I

Glycoproteins gM and gN are indispensable factors for rhesus macaque rhadinovirus replication and spread but can be reconstituted by KSHV chimeras [PDF]
Rhesus macaque rhadinovirus (RRV) is a primate gamma-2 herpesvirus (rhadinovirus) closely related to Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), the human oncovirus that causes Kaposi sarcoma.

Generation of chimeric forms of rhesus macaque rhadinovirus expressing KSHV envelope glycoproteins gH and gL for utilization in an NHP model of infection [PDF]
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a human gammaherpesvirus associated with Kaposi’s sarcoma and B cell malignancies. Like all herpesviruses, KSHV contains conserved envelope glycoproteins (gps) involved in virus binding, entry, assembly ...

Molecular Identification and Characterization of a Novel Gammaherpesvirus in Wild Rabbits [PDF]
To date, five herpesviruses have been identified in Leporidae (LeHV-1, LeHV-2, LeHV-3, LeHV-4, and LeHV-5). Two of these have been shown to infect the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), causing either asymptomatic infection (LeHV-2, a ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) gB dictates a low-pH endocytotic entry pathway as revealed by a dual-fluorescent virus system and a rhesus monkey rhadinovirus expressing KSHV gB. [PDF]
Interaction with host cell receptors initiates internalization of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) particles. Fusion of viral and host cell membranes, which is followed by release of the viral capsid into the cytoplasm, is executed by the ...
