Several immortalized cell lines were generated, all retaining tumour DNA and expressing the viral genes, suggesting that either one or both of these genes is sufficient for the immortalization of primary human genital keratinocytes., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jgv/10.1099/0022-1317-70-5-1261
