Abstract excerpt
Human papillomavirus type 31, although detected less frequently than HPV types 16 and 18, is associated with head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.

This study reports the first complete genome of a South African HPV31 isolate from a laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Sequence variations...
