Methyltransferase-independent function of enhancer of zeste homologue 2 maintains tumorigenicity induced by human oncogenic papillomavirus and polyomavirus
7 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV) and high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are human tumor viruses that cause Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), respectively. HPV E7 and MCV large T (LT) oncoproteins target the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (pRb) through the conserved LxCxE motif. We identified enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) as a common host oncoprotein...
