The High-Risk Human Papillomavirus Type 16 E6 Counters the GAP Function of E6TP1 toward Small Rap G Proteins

Abstract excerpt

We have recently identified E6TP1 (E6-targeted protein 1) as a novel high-risk human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) E6-binding protein. Importantly, mutational analysis of E6 revealed a strong correlation between the transforming activity and its abilities to bind and target E6TP1 for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. As a region within E6TP1 has high homology with GAP domains of known and putative Rap...
