Abstract excerpt
The E6 proteins of the oncogenic-associated human papillomavirus types 16 (HPV-16) and 18 (HPV-18) function by interfering with the normal cell cycle control mechanisms, particularly those controlled by p53. HPV E6 is able to interfere with p53 function by preventing its binding to DNA target seq...
