FcaGHV1 protein homologs are antigenic in other gammaherpesviruses.

Gene Type of protein Antigen of Possible function

ORF17.5 Scaffold protein OvHV2, AlHV11 Involved in capsid assembly2
ORF26 Capsid EBV (BDLF1)3 Capsid protein4, late gene5
ORF38 Tegument KSHV6 Support virion maturation in the cytoplasm7
ORF42 Tegument EBV (BBRF2)8 May contribute to the regulation of mitochondrial function9
ORF52 Tegument EBV (BLRF2)10,11 Assist virion egress and secondary envelopment10
ORF59 Phosphoprotein KSHV12 Binds DNA polymerase and dsDNA to promote DNA synthesis by acting as a sliding clamp13
ORF65 Capsid EBV (BFRF3)11, KSHV12, 14, OvHV2, AlHV11 Small capsid protein4, late gene5

Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV2) and Alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV1) are malignant catarrhal fever-causing viruses. EBV has distinct gene nomenclature listed in parentheses.
