abbr. MHV-68 ORF 74 [murine herpesvirus 68 ORF 74]. This protein is encoded by open reading frame 74 of murine gammaherpesvirus 68. The gene encodes a G-protein-coupled receptor with close homology to the IL8 receptor (Virgin et al, 2007). A similar gene is found in Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. The murine protein is expressed during acute infection but also during persistence, particularly in the lungs of infected mice (Wakeling et al, 2001). Wakeling et al (2001), who referred to the receptor as MHV-GPCR have reported that the protein is oncogenic
