Identification of human papillomavirus type 18 transforming genes in immortalized and primary cells
Abstract
The selective retention and expression of the E6-E7 region of human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16 and 18 in cervical carcinomas suggests that these viral sequences play a role in the development of genital neoplasia. Each of three possible gene products, E6, E6*, and E7, from this region of HPV-18 were examined for transforming properties in several types of rodent cells. We have found that in immortalized fibroblasts, both E6 and E7 (but not E6*) are capable of inducing anchorage-independent growth. In rat embryo cells, the HPV-18 E7 open reading frame was an effective immortalizing agent and complemented an activated ras oncogene for transformation. In both immortalized and primary cells, transformation was observed when the HPV-18 sequences were expressed from either the HPV-18 promoter or a heterologous promoter. The E6-E7 region is not, however, the sole transforming domain of HPV-18, since another portion of the early region, possibly E5, also exhibited transforming capability in immortalized fibroblasts. The development of human cervical carcinomas may therefore involve a series of steps involving multiple viral and cellular gene products.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
