Biochemical and biological differences between E7 oncoproteins of the high- and low-risk human papillomavirus types are determined by amino-terminal sequences
1 Jul 1991
Abstract excerpt
Differences in the biological characteristics of the high-risk human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) and the low-risk HPV-6 E7 proteins were analyzed and shown to correlate with certain biochemical properties. To ascertain which region of E7 conferred these properties, chimeric E7 genes were constructed by the exchange of the amino and carboxyl coding halves of the HPV-6 and HPV-16 E7 genes. The amino-terminal...
