    Abstract: This invention relates to polynuclelotides encoding Glycoprotein B from the RFHV/KSHV subfamily of gamma herpes viruses, three members of which are characterized in detail. DNA extracts were obtained from Macaque nemestrina and Macaque mulatta monkeys affected with retroperitoneal fibromatosis (RF), and human AIDS patients affected with Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). The extracts were amplified using consensus-degenerate oligonucleotide probes designed from known protein and DNA sequences of gamma herpes viruses. The nucleotide sequences of a 319 base pair fragment are about 76 % identical between RFHV1 and KSHV, and about 60-63 % identical with the closest related gamma herpes viruses outside the RFHV/KSHV subfamily. Protein sequences encoded within these fragments are about 91 % identical between RFHV1 and KSHV, and

    Abstract: Methods of inhibiting or killing cancer cells are disclosed wherein compounds having an endoperoxide moiety that is reactive with heme are administered under conditions which enhance intracellular iron concentrations. Representative endoperoxide compounds include endoperoxide bearing sesquiterpene compounds such as artemisinin and its analogs, arteflene and its analogs, 1,2,4-trioxanes and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes. Intracellular iron concentrations may be enhanced by the administration of iron salts or complexes. The in vitro course of such treatment is demonstrated by the time response curve of molt-4 human leukemia cells incubated in halotransferin and dihydroartemisinin.

    Abstract: Methods for preparing DNA-binding proteins having altered binding specificity are disclosed. The binding specificity of a parent DNA-binding protein comprising first and second Cys2-His2 zinc fingers is altered by the addition of an additional zinc finger, wherein the altered specificity is a result of interactions between nucleotides in a target sequence and amino acid residues in each of the first, second and additional zinc fingers. The altered DNA-binding proteins are useful within methods for preparing polypeptides.

    Abstract: Engraftment of grafts in transplant recipients are enhanced by implanting CD34-positive hematopoietic cells obtained from the graft donor in the thymus of the transplant recipient. The methods enhance engraftment of both allogeneic and xenogeneic transplants. Methods are also provided for supplying a gene product of interest in a host mammal by implanting in the thymus of the host CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitor cells which encode the gene product of interest. The CD34-positive hematopoietic cells can be genetically engineered to produce the gene product of interest in the recipient host.
