TLDR
These E6 protein-complexes, together with other proteins that bind to E6, alter a broad array of biological outcomes including modulation of cell survival, cellular transcription, host cell differentiation, growth factor dependence, DNA damage responses, and cell cycle progression.

Integrated genomic and molecular characterization of cervical cancer

TL;DR: The extensive molecular characterization of 228 primary cervical cancers is reported, one of the largest comprehensive genomic studies of cervical cancer to date, and novel significantly mutated genes in cervical cancer are identified, revealing new potential therapeutic targets for cervical cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carcinogenic human papillomavirus infection.

TL;DR: HPV testing will probably replace cytology-based cervical screening owing to greater reassurance when the test is negative, however, the effective implementation of HPV vaccination and screening globally remains a challenge.

Human viral oncogenesis: a cancer hallmarks analysis.

TL;DR: The Hallmarks of Cancer framework of Hanahan and Weinberg (2000 and 2011) is used to dissect the viral, host, and environmental cofactors that contribute to the biology of multistep oncogenesis mediated by established human oncoviruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Papillomaviruses; Epithelial Tropisms, and the Development of Neoplasia

TL;DR: It appears that cellular environment and the site of infection affect viral pathogenicity by modulating viral gene expression, and changes in E6 and E7 expression are thought to account for the development of neoplasias at the endocervix, the anal and cervical transformation zones, and the tonsilar crypts and other oropharyngeal sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

The human papillomavirus family and its role in carcinogenesis.

TL;DR: Additional research is necessary to characterize the biology and epidemiology of the vast number of HPV types that have been poorly investigated so far, with a final aim of clarifying their potential roles in other human diseases.

The E6 oncoprotein encoded by human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 promotes the degradation of p53

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the E6 proteins of the oncogenic HPVs that bind p53 stimulate the degradation of p53, which results in selective degradation of cellular proteins such as p53 with negative regulatory functions provides a novel mechanism of action for dominant-acting oncoproteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Classification of papillomaviruses

TL;DR: The higher-order PV taxonomy is described following the general criteria established by the International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), reviews the literature of the lower order taxa, lists all known "PV types", and interprets their phylogenetic relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 E6 proteins with p53.

TL;DR: This study shows that the E6 protein of HPV-16 is capable of binding to the cellular p53 protein, providing further evidence that the human papillomaviruses, the adenovirus type 5, and SV40 may effect similar cellular pathways in transformation.

The HPV-16 E6 and E6-AP complex functions as a ubiquitin-protein ligase in the ubiquitination of p53

TL;DR: The purification and identification of the factors necessary for the E6-E6-AP-mediated ubiquitination of p53 are reported, and E 6-AP appears to have ubiquitin-protein ligase activity in the absence of E6.
