The genus Macavirus, subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae, comprises ungulate viruses that infect domestic and wild ruminants and swine. (bvsalud.org)
Bovine herpesvirus type 6 (BoHV-6) belongs to the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily of the genus Macavirus, which includes viruses that are tropic to the lymphoid cells of ruminants. (journalveterinariya.ru)
Domestic and wild ruminants1
Bluetongue is a non-contagious disease of ruminants caused by a virus from the Orbivirus genus, Reoviridae family, that affects domestic and wild ruminants, including cattle, sheep, goats, buffaloes and deer. (journalveterinariya.ru)
Strains1
Among the latter, recent comparison and from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/Blast.cgi), indi- phylogenetic analyses of all available sequences support cated a novel -herpesviral DNA polymerase sequence that the existence of two distinct genogroups called RV1 and was closely related to the Rhadinovirus genus strains. (cdc.gov)
Rhadinovirus2
Murid gammaherpesvirus 68 (MuHV-68) is an isolate of the virus species Murid gammaherpesvirus 4, a member of the genus Rhadinovirus. (wikipedia.org)
The finding of this new gibbon virus, which clus- ma samples from 10 orangutans and 3 gibbons with titers ters with a related chimpanzee virus in the rhadinovirus 2 from 1/20 to 1/160, while seroreactivity against the latent genogroup, suggests the existence of a novel -2-her- nuclear antigen was more rarely detected (7 orangutans pesvirus in humans. (cdc.gov)
Human disease1
MuHV-68 serves as a model for study of human gammaherpesviruses which cause significant human disease including B-cell lymphoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. (wikipedia.org)
Transmission of the virus2
This receptor is involved in the cell-to-cell transmission of the virus. (wikipedia.org)
Nevertheless, the facts of detection of the pathogen in animals with pathologies of the reproductive system, udder pathologies, from animals with bovine leukemia made researchers think about the mechanisms of transmission of the virus and, most importantly, about its etiological role in the structure of infectious pathology of cattle.

Role1
Both viruses play an important role in human multistep herpesvirus DNA polymerase gene by heminested PCR, carcinogenesis, especially in immunodeficient patients. (cdc.gov)
Studies1
However, most of the sequences of these orangutans and 4 gibbons, of two species-specific lym- viruses, which allow phylogenetic studies, have only been phocryptovirus sequences, that were slightly different recently obtained (4). (cdc.gov)
Herpesvirus2
MuHV-68 is more closely related to the Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) than it is to the Epstein-Barr virus. (wikipedia.org)
Both viruses play an important role in human multistep herpesvirus DNA polymerase gene by heminested PCR, carcinogenesis, especially in immunodeficient patients. (cdc.gov)

MuHV-68 serves as a model for study of human gammaherpesviruses which cause significant human disease including B-cell lymphoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. (wikipedia.org)
