The high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the etiological cause of cervical cancer and the most common sexually transmitted infection. While the majority of infections may be asymptomatic or cause only benign lesions, persistent infection with the oncogenic high-risk HPV types may lead to serious diseases, such as cervical cancer, anogenital carcinoma, or head and neck oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. The identification of virus-host protein interactions provides insights into the mechanisms of viral DNA persistence, viral genome replication, and cellular transformation. Elucidating the mechanism of early events in the virus replication cycle as well as of integration of viral DNA into host chromatin may present novel antiviral strategies and targets for counteracting persistent infection. The E2 protein is an important viral regulatory protein whose functions are mediated through interactions with host cell proteins. Here we explore the interaction of E2 with SMC5/6 and the functional consequences.

The SMC5/6 Complex Interacts with the Papillomavirus E2 Protein and Influences Maintenance of Viral Episomal DNA
