Abstract
We determined that the human papillomavirus type 18 (HPV18) regulatory region contains one functional GRE sequence that interacts with the g lucocorticoid receptor. This sequence conferred a moderate hormonal ac tivation to the HPV18 P-105 promoter. Two modulators of glucocorticoid hormone activity, AP1 and hbrm, both involved in P-105 transcription, were found not to interfere with this hormonal activation. (C) 1996 A cademic Press, Inc.
