Genetic Analysis of the Human Papillomavirus Type 31 Differentiation-Dependent Late Promoter
24 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
Human papillomaviruses infect stratifying squamous epithelia, causing benign and malignant lesions. Upon differentiation of the host keratinocyte, the virus undergoes a dramatic increase in both DNA replication and transcription from the late promoter, leading to expression of late genes and virion morphogenesis. In human papillomavirus type 31 (HPV31), the late promoter is designated p742 and includes multiple...
