a

Nucleotide positions of ORF26 SNPs reported by Poole et al. (16). Nucleotides in the first entry represent HHV-8 sequences derived from the BCBL-R cell line. —, no polymorphism.

b

ORF-K1 subtypes determined by phylogenetic analysis of ORF K1 sequences. NP, no PCR fragments were obtained by PCR of PBMC DNA.

c

Past or present history of KS. +, present; −, absent.

d

Data were obtained from KS tissue DNA. ORF K1 fragments could not be obtained from PBMC DNA for these patients.
