Werner Syndrome Protein (WRN) Regulates Cell Proliferation and the Human Papillomavirus 16 Life Cycle during Epithelial Differentiation

ABSTRACT Human papillomaviruses recruit a host of DNA damage response factors to their viral genome to facilitate homologous recombination replication in association with the viral replication factors E1 and E2.We previously demonstrated that SIRT1 deacetylation of WRN promotes recruitment of WRN to E1-E2 replicating DNA and that WRN regulates both
