This protein is a viral homolog of one of the chemokines. It is encoded in the genome of the Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus KSHV (Neipel et al, 1998). viral MIP-1-beta has been shown to inhibit chemically induced cell death by apoptosis in primary effusion lymphoma-derived cell lines. (Liu et al, 2001).
