ABSTRACT

The E6 proteins of the high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) have been shown to form a complex with and induce the degradation of human p53 in vitro. To determine whether p53 is degraded more rapidly in cells expressing E6 in vivo, the half-life of p53 was determined by pulse-chase analysis in early-passage normal human keratinocytes and fibroblasts, human keratinocytes immortalized with HPV type 16 (HPV16) E6 plus E7, and nonimmortal keratinocytes transfected with E6. The results of these experiments indicate that (i) the half-life of newly synthesized p53 is relatively long (4 h) in early-passage human keratinocytes and fibroblasts but short in keratinocytes expressing E6 (15 to 30 min), (ii) a similar increased rate of p53 degradation was measured in lines immortalized with HPV16 E6 plus E7 and senescent cells expressing E6, indicating that this increase is not simply the result of selection in the immortalized lines, and (iii) very low levels of expression of E6 result in a greatly decreased half-life of p53, suggesting that E6 acts in a catalytic manner.
