Targeting the Human Papillomavirus 16 E6 Oncoprotein with Antibodies
2022-10-22
Abstract excerpt
The human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 genome encodes two oncoproteins, E6 and E7, which are essential for viral carcinogenesis. While E7 promotes cell proliferation, E6 abolishes the resulting p53-dependent apoptotic response. Due to this specific function, E6 is considered a suitable target for the development of a variety of therapeutic agents such as antibodies. Here, we review anti-E6 antibodies/antibody fragments...
