This study shows that high-risk HPV E7 proteins require inactivating both RB1 and PTPN14 to extend keratinocyte lifespan, while low-risk E7 needs PTPN14 inactivation alone.

This study identifies the lncRNA DINO as a host factor that promotes HPV genome replication and early viral gene expression independently of keratinocyte differentiation.

This paper shows that the MmuPV1 E7 protein binds RB1 without using the canonical LXCXE motif and that this interaction is essential for papilloma formation in mice.
