Preferential nuclear localization of the human papillomavirus type 16 E6 oncoprotein in cervical carcinoma cells
16 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
The E6 protein of the high-risk human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is involved in the tumorigenesis of human cervical cells by targeting numerous cellular proteins. We characterized new anti-E6 monoclonal antibodies and used them for precise localization of the E6 oncoprotein within carcinoma cells. Overexpressed E6 protein was predominantly detected in the nucleus of transiently transfected HaCaT cells. While...
