name:
Evaluation of the latency-associated nuclear antigen (ORF73) of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus by peptide mapping and bacterially expressed recombinant western blot assay.
description:
A positive result was scored if the ratio of optical density of patient sera to the average of two KSHV-seronegative blood donors for the peptide greater than 2. Lysates of E. coli transformed with a plasmid encoding full length ORF73 (LANA) or purified protein can be recognized by patient sera by Western Blot (67% positive).
