  TITLE     A novel human papillomavirus sequence based on L1 general
            primers
  JOURNAL   Virus Res. 36, 293-297 (1995)
COMMENT     Togawa et al (Gastroenterology 107:128-36, 1994) identified
	    an HPV strain with a novel restriction digest pattern in 
	    14% of squamous cell carcinomas.  Sequence of a fragment 
	    of the L1 gene indicates that this sequence is related to
	    HPV-types associated with EV.  The most closely related
	    known HPV types appear to be HPVs 22, 23 and 38.  
	    The partial L1 sequences for HPVVS42 and HPVVS73 do not 
	    overlap with that of the Togawa isolate; from their similarity 
	    to HPVs 22, 23 and 38, it is possible that the Togawa strain
	    and one of the other two isolates are from the same HPV type.
