Abstract excerpt
The human papillomavirus 16 (HPV-16) E5 oncoprotein is a small integral membrane protein that binds to the 16-kDa subunit of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (v-ATPase). Conservation within the family of v-ATPases prompted us to look to Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a potential model organism for E5 study. The E5 open reading frame, driven by a galactose-inducible promoter, was integrated into the yeast genome, and the...
