Degradation of p53 can be targeted by HPV E6 sequences distinct from those required for p53 binding and trans-activation.

TL;DR: It is shown that E 6 proteins of both oncogenic and benign HPV types associate in vitro with p53, but binding by E6 proteins of benign HPVtypes cannot target p53 for degradation, and a C-terminal region of E6 conserved among all HPV types is important for p53 binding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clonal p53 mutation in primary cervical cancer: association with human-papillomavirus-negative tumours

TL;DR: The data indicate that loss of wild-type p53 function is important in the pathology of cervical cancer and that in the absence of an HPV-encoded gene product that mediates loss of p53function, somatic mutation of the gene is required.
Journal Article

p53 point mutation in HPV negative human cervical carcinoma cell lines.

TL;DR: The data suggest that loss of wild-type p53 function is important in development of cervical carcinoma, and that this might be achieved either by mutation within the p53 gene or the presence of a virally encoded p53 binding protein.
