The regulation mechanism of c-jun and junB by human papillomavirus type 16 E5 oncoprotein

Arch Virol. 1996;141(5):791-800. doi: 10.1007/BF01718155.

Abstract

In this study, we show that HPV-16 E5 induced anchorage-independent growth in immortalized human epidermal keratinocytes and that HPV-16 E5 in human keratinocytes had higher expression of c-jun and junB; also, we investigated the role of transcriptional initiation pathways in the expression elevation. In addition, Ras-dependent pathway, as well as PKC-dependent pathway, leads to HPV-16 E5-induced c-jun gene expression.
