Post-Transcriptional Gene Regulation by HPV 16E6 and Its Host Protein Partners

Abstract excerpt

Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV 16) is the most common oncogenic type of HPV in cervical, anogenital, and head and neck cancers, making HPV 16 an important high-risk HPV (HR HPV) type. To create an environment permissible for viral maintenance and growth and to initiate and support oncogenesis, the HR HPV protein E6 functions to dysregulate normal cellular processes. HR HPV type 16 E6 (16E6) has previously been...
