Abstract: T7791C abrogated binding of recombinant C/EBPbeta to this site in vitro and stimulated the EP in vivo, suggesting that it abrogates a negatively-acting regulatory element.
Abstract: This increased promoter activity was ascribed to a single nucleotide variation in the
LCR,
T7791C, in a putative binding site for the transcription factor C/EBPbeta.
Introduction: In further support of this notion, we observed that the
C7732G variation that is present in some A2-sublineage variants and which we previously found to be associated with
high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (
HSIL), also increases the activity of the HPV33 EP approximately 2-fold in PHK.
Introduction: Our results indicate that the
