Towards an understanding of the evolution of the HPV E6 PDZ binding motif
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The high-risk human alpha papillomaviruses, associated with the development of cervical cancer differ in the carboxyl-terminal sequence of the E6 oncogenic protein, where a PDZ-binding motif (PBM) is located. The PBM binds to PDZ-containing proteins of the cell, and variation in the PBM sequence is likely to affect the PDZ protein selectivity of E6, and the phospho-acceptor site embedded within the PBM. Using the...
