Anti-HHV8 Monoclonal Antibody, clone LN53

Anti-HHV8 Monoclonal Antibody, clone LN53

Antibody specific of ORF-73 of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)


This antibody stains with ORF-73 of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8). HHV8 is the likely etiological agent of Kaposi 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.

Cultured cells infected with HHV8 stained with HHV8 antibody (Mob 395).
