Abstract:Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus is the etiologic agent of Kaposi's sarcoma and two B-cell malignancies. Recent advancements in sequencing technologies have led to high resolution transcriptomes for several human herpesviruses that densely encode genes on both strands. However, for KSHV progress remained limited due to the overall low percentage of KSHV transcripts, even during lytic replication. To address this challenge, we have developed a target enrichment method to increase the KSHV-specific reads … Show more
