Contributor Information
- Name Lawrence Banks
- Institute International Centre For Genetic Engineering And Biotechnology (ICGEB)
Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-HPV-18 E6phospho
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
- Class: Polyclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human papilloma virus
- Host: Rabbit
- Application: WB
- Description: Nearly all cases of cervical cancer are associated with HPV infection, with two types, HPV16 and HPV18, present in 70% of cases. A defining feature of cervical cancers and derived cell lines is the continued expression of two viral oncoproteins, E6 and E7. A defining characteristic of E6 oncoproteins derived from cancer-causing HPV types is the presence of a PDZ binding motif (PBM) at the extreme carboxy terminus of the protein which is absent from E6 proteins derived from the so-called low-risk HPV types. Within this PBM is also a protein kinase A (PKA) phospho-acceptor site, which is thought to negatively regulate the association of E6 with its PDZ domain-containing substrates
