Natural variants of the human papillomavirus type 16 E6 protein differ in their abilities to alter keratinocyte differentiation and to induce p53 degradation
1 Oct 1996
Abstract excerpt
Three naturally occurring variant human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E6 proteins, which contained amino acid substitutions predominantly near the N terminus, exhibited significant differences in their abilities to abrogate keratinocyte differentiation in response to serum and calcium and to induce the degradation of p53 in vitro. One variant surpassed the reference E6 protein in its ability to abrogate...
