Background

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a member of the human herpesviruses and has been closely linked to the Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). KSHV encodes a distinct open reading frame called K15 at a position equivalent to the gene encoding LMP2A of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Although K15 does not exhibit homology to LMP2A, both proteins contain a similar structural organisation, and modulate lymphocyte signalling. K15 targets the major B cell Src kinase-Lyn and this interaction appears to be important in transcriptional modulation of NFAT/AP1 activities.
