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...

Human papillomavirus oncoproteins: pathways to transformation
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the causative agents of over 99% of cervical cancers. Cervical cancer is the second largest cause of cancer deaths in women w...

Chapter
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 ...

Open AccessMechanisms 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...

Human papillomaviruses: targeting differentiating epithelial cells for malignant transformation
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of cervical neoplasia. Insights into the mechanisms by which HPV infection can, in a small numbers of cases, result in malignancy, ...

Microarray Analysis of Human Papillomavirus Pathogenesis
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) have a complex life cycle, which is associated with the differentiation state of the host cell. Over eighty-five different types have been identified to date, and each exhibits st...

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...

Crystal structure at 1.7 Å of the bovine papillomavirus-1 E2 DMA-binding domain bound to its DNA target
The dominant transcriptional regulator of the papiIlomaviruses, E2, binds to its specific DNA target through a previously unobserved dimeric ant i para I lei β-barrel. The DNA is severely but smoothly bent ove...
