Beta Human Papillomavirus 8 E6 Induces Micronucleus Formation and Promotes Chromothripsis

Abstract

Some beta genus human papillomaviruses (β-HPVs) may promote skin carcinogenesis by inducing mutations in the host genome. Supporting this, the E6 protein from β-HPV8 (8 E6) promotes skin cancer in mice with or without UV exposure.
