Human Papillomavirus Type 5 E6 Oncoprotein Represses the Transforming Growth Factor β Signaling Pathway by Binding to SMAD3
27 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
Mechanisms of cellular transformation associated with human papillomavirus type 5 (HPV5), which is responsible for skin carcinomas in epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) patients, are poorly understood. Using a yeast two-hybrid screening and molecular and cellular biology experiments, we found that HPV5 oncoprotein E6 interacts with SMAD3, a key component in the transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1)...
