Abstract excerpt

In the cottontail rabbit papillomavirus (CRPV)-rabbit system, recombinant CRPV DNA can induce papillomas. This investigation was undertaken to evaluate whether the E5 open reading frame (ORF) of CRPV is required for papilloma formation. The CRPV genome we utilized, CRPV-WA, was sequenced in the E...
