    Topoisomerase IIβ-binding protein 1 activates expression of E2F1 and p73 in HPV-positive cells for genome amplification upon epithelial differentiation

    High-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) constitutively activate ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and ataxia telangiectasia- and Rad3-related (ATR) DNA damage repair pathways for viral genome amplification. ...

    The Role of Human Papillomaviruses in Oncogenesis

    Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the causative agents of cervical and other anogenital as well as oral cancers. Approximately fifty percent of virally induced cancers in the USA are associated with HPV infect...

    Viral Transformation of Epithelial Cells

    Approximately 18% of human cancers have a viral etiology and the majority of these involve transformation of epithelial cells. Viral proteins transform epithelia by inducing alterations in the normal cell grow...

    The Life Cycle of Human Papillomaviruses

    The life cycle of human papillomaviruses (HPV) is dependent on epithelial differentiation and is regulated by a number of cellular proteins. HPVs infect keratinocytes in the basal layer of the epithelium, and ...

    Mechanisms regulating expression of the HPV 31 L1 and L2 capsid proteins and pseudovirion entry

    Human papillomaviruses (HPV) infect stratified epithelia and restrict expression of late capsid genes to highly differentiated cells. In order to begin to understand the processes regulating HPV 31 infection w...

    Human Papillomavirus Type 31 Life Cycle Methods for Study Using Tissue Culture Models

    The life cycle of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) has been difficult to study in tissue culture owing to its dependence on epithelial differentiation. In this chapter several methods are described to imitate the...

    Specific repression of TATA-mediated but not initiator-mediated transcription by wild-type p53

    THE p53 protein is apparently central to the development of human cancers because both alleles are often found to be mutated in different tumour types1. In addition, wild-type p53 can inhibit transformation by vi...
