Divergence of HPV16 variants reflects loci undergoing inter-host positive selection, potentially immunologic selection

2017-07-03

Abstract excerpt

Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) is the most carcinogenic HPV, causing >50% of cervical cancers. Its unique oncogenicity is unsolved, e.g., the second most carcinogenic type (HPV18, causing ~16% of cancers) is relatively distantly related to HPV16. Mirabello et al. recently reported on viral genome data from 3,215 HPV positive specimens from women undergoing cervical cancer screening at Kaiser Permanente Nort...
