Prevalence of deletions of YY1‐binding sites in episomal HPV 16 DNA from cervical cancers
15 Sept 1994
Abstract excerpt
Expression of the oncogenes E6 and E7 of human papillomavirus 16 (HPV 16) appears enhanced in pre-malignant and malignant genital tumors. We recently identified a transcriptional silencer upstream of the oncogene promoter P97, comprising 4 binding sites for the cellular YY1 protein. The analysis of the long transcriptional control regions (LCR) of episomal HPV 16 DNAs from primary tumors and lymph-node metastases...
