The KSHV/HHV8 orf62 (Catalog #MBS395678) is an Antibody produced from Sheep and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. MyBioSource\'s KSHV/HHV8 (mal 62/ORF 62) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KSHV/HHV8 orf62 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.The KSHV/HHV8 orf62 product has the following accession number(s) (GI #139472854) (NCBI Accession #YP_001129419.1) (Uniprot Accession #Q2HR66). Researchers may be interested in using Bioinformatics databases such as those available at The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website for more information about accession numbers and the proteins they represent. Even researchers unfamiliar with bioinformatics databases will find the NCBI databases to be quite user friendly and useful.

The immunogen used for the anti-human herpesvirus 8 MAL62 was a fusion protein that contains at its amino terminus the maltose binding protein and at its carboxy terminus the protein encoded by the open reading frame 62 (ORF62). ORF62 interacts with the minor capsid protein (mCP) OF HHV8 and mediates its translocation to the nucleus where the assembly of the HHV8 capsid components take place.

In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing KSHV/HHV8 are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as KSHV/HHV8 may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
