HPV16‐E6 associated hTERT promoter acetylation is E6AP dependent, increased in later passage cells and enhanced by loss of p300
17 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
The E6 oncoprotein from high-risk HPV types activates human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) transcription in human keratinocytes. Studies on how E6 regulates hTERT have implicated E-box or X-box elements in the hTERT promoter (Veldman et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2003;100:8211-14; Oh et al., J Virol 2001;75:5559-66; Gewin et al., Genes Dev 2004;18:2269-82), but the mechanism of activation by E6 is...
