Abstract:We have demonstrated that SAMHD1 (sterile alpha motif and histidine-aspartic domain HD-containing protein 1) is a restriction factor for the HPV16 life cycle. Here we demonstrate that in HPV negative cervical cancer C33a cells and human foreskin keratinocytes immortalized by HPV16 (HFK+HPV16), SAMHD1 is recruited to E1-E2 replicating DNA. Homologous recombination (HR) factors are required for HPV16 replication and viral replication promotes phosphorylation of SAMHD1, which converts it from a dNTPase to an HR f… Show more
