Beta Human Papillomavirus E6 Expression Inhibits Stabilization of p53 and Increases Tolerance of Genomic Instability
20 Mar 2014
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Infections with the beta genus of human papillomaviruses (β-HPVs) may contribute to the development of nonmelanoma skin cancers. However, β-HPV genomes are found at too low a copy number in tumors for the virus to be necessary for tumor maintenance. Instead, they are hypothesized to destabilize the host genome by allowing the persistence of mutations that can drive tumorigenesis independently of the...
