Species Specificity of Macaque Rhadinovirus Glycoprotein B Sequences [PDF]
All members of the Herpesviridae family contain sequences for a highly conserved glycoprotein B (gB) gene. We investigated the phylogenetic relationships of gB sequences from eight independent rhadinovirus isolates obtained from three species: rhesus ...

Rhesus Monkey Rhadinovirus Isolated from Hemangioma Tissue
We isolated a rhesus monkey rhadinovirus, isolate RRVmmu 209-07, from hemangioma tissue. The virion DNA was sequenced by Illumina-based sequencing. Isolate RRVmmu 209-07 is highly similar overall to RRV 26-95, but considerable differences exist in the 3′

Glycoprotein gene sequence variation in rhesus monkey rhadinovirus [PDF]
Gene sequences for seven glycoproteins from 20 independent isolates of rhesus monkey rhadinovirus (RRV) and of the corresponding seven glycoprotein genes from nine strains of the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) were obtained and analyzed ...

Whole-Genome Transcription Profiling of Rhesus Monkey Rhadinovirus [PDF]
Rhesus monkey rhadinovirus (RRV) and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV; also called human herpesvirus 8) belong to the gamma-2 grouping of herpesviruses. RRV and KSHV share a high degree of sequence similarity, and their genomes are organized

Complete genome sequence of MneRV2, the pig-tailed macaque RV2 rhadinovirus, and evolutionary relationship with rhesus macaque RRV and human herpesvirus 8/KSHV [PDF]
Two rhadinovirus lineages have been identified in Old World primates. The rhadinovirus 1 (RV1) lineage consists of human herpesvirus 8, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), and closely related rhadinoviruses of chimpanzees, gorillas, macaques ...

Microtubule- and Dynein-Dependent Nuclear Trafficking of Rhesus Rhadinovirus in Rhesus Fibroblasts [PDF]
We investigated the role of microtubules in rhesus rhadinovirus (RRV) nuclear trafficking in rhesus fibroblasts. Intact microtubules and microtubule dynamics are required for RRV trafficking to perinuclear regions.

Identification of the Rhesus Macaque Rhadinovirus Lytic Origin of DNA Replication [PDF]
We have identified a lytic origin of DNA replication (oriLyt) for rhesus macaque rhadinovirus (RRV), the rhesus macaque homolog of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), also known as Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.

Myelin‐specific T cells in animals with Japanese macaque encephalomyelitis
Objective To determine whether animals with Japanese macaque encephalomyelitis (JME), a spontaneous demyelinating disease similar to multiple sclerosis (MS), harbor myelin‐specific T cells in their central nervous system (CNS) and periphery.

Plxdc family members are novel receptors for the rhesus monkey rhadinovirus (RRV) [PDF]
The rhesus monkey rhadinovirus (RRV), a γ2-herpesvirus of rhesus macaques, shares many biological features with the human pathogenic Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV).

Characterization of the complement inhibitory function of Rhesus rhadinovirus complement control protein (RCP). [PDF]
Rhesus Rhadinovirus (RRV) is currently the closest known, fully sequenced homolog of human Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). Both these viruses encode complement inhibitors: KSHV-complement control protein (KCP) and RRV-complement control ...
