Small DNA Tumour Viruses

Biochemists, molecular biologists, and related scientists report findings from research using small DNA tumor viruses into fundamental aspects of biology, among them gene regulation, DNA replication, cell transformation, cell cycle control, and tumorigenesis. The topics include the art and science of obtaining virion stocks for experimental human papillomavirus infections, the structure and associations of E6 oncoproteins, the viral deregulation of DNA damage responses, the induction of genomic instability by human papillomavirus oncoproteins, and the role of the immune system in adenoviruses and gene therapy.
