Identification of Human Herpesvirus 8 Sequences in Conjunctiva Intraepithelial Neoplasia and Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Ugandan Patients

Table 4

Nucleotide changes identifying distinct subgroups of HHV8 genomes within the ORF26 gene locus. Dashes indicate identities to the prototype. Absence of genetic variations relative to the references is marked with dashes, whereas presence of variant nucleotides is indicated by the nucleotide corresponding letter. An empty space indicates sequence not available. ∧ indicates nucleotide insertion; indicates nucleotide deletion. The numbering system conforms to that used by Tornesello et al. [32].
