Journal ArticleDOI
High-risk (HPV16) human papillomavirus E7 oncoprotein is highly stable and extended, with conformational transitions that could explain its multiple cellular binding partners.

TL;DR: It is shown that persistent residual structure in the monomer of E7 is responsible for its reported anomalous electrophoretic behavior and conformational properties that could have evolved to enable protein-protein recognition of the large number of cellular binding partners reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The HPV16 E7 viral oncoprotein self-assembles into defined spherical oligomers.

TL;DR: High-risk HPV16 E7, a nonglobular dimer with some properties of intrinsically disordered proteins, is capable of undergoing pH-dependent conformational transitions that expose hydrophobic surfaces to the solvent and is able to readily assemble into homogeneous spherical particles.
