A purified human papillomavirus gene selected from the group consisting of E1, E6-E7, L1, and L2, wherein said human papillomavirus is selected from the group consisting of HPV-2d, HPV-10b, HPV-14a, HPV-14b, HPV-15, HPV-17a, HPV-17b, HPV-19, HPV-20, HPV-21, HPV-22, HPV-23, HPV-24, HPV-28, HPV-29, HPV-31, HPV-32, HPV-IP2 and HPV-IP4. Polypeptides encoded by these genes. The polypeptides can be used in immunogenic compositions.

Immunogenic compositions of human papillomavirus and sera produced therefrom

The invention concerns human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA and more particularly the probes derived from these papillomaviruses, as well as the methods of detecting HPV using these probes. These human papillomaviruses are designated as HPV-2d, HPV-10b, HPV-14a, HPV-14b, HPV-15, HPV-17a, HPV-17b, HPV-19, HPV-20, HPV-21, HPV-22, HPV-23, HPV-24, HPV-28, HPV-29, HPV-31, HPV-32, HPV-IP2 and HPV-IP4.

Immunogenic compositions of human papillomavirus

The present invention provides papillomavirus DNA, and more particularly DNA probes derived from papillomavirus. The present invention also provides procedures for the use of DNA derived from papillomavirus in the in vitro diagnosis of papillomavirus infections.

Polypeptides and antibodies characteristic of papillomavirus, and

The invention relates to papillomaviruses, particularly to DNA-HPVs isolated from the papillomaviruses IP5 and IP6, the restriction maps of papillomaviruses IP5 and IP6, and also to probes containing these DNA-HPVs or fragments obtained from them. The invention relates, in addition, to 'kits' containing distinct groups of probes, containing one of these DNA-HPVs or DNA-HPV fragments, as well as a procedure for the detection and identification of papillomaviruses which makes use of these different probes.

Probes for papillomaviruses and an in vitro diagnostic procedure for

The invention relates to the DNAs of papillomaviruses, and more particularly to the probes derived from these papillomaviruses, as well as procedures for their implementation in the in vitro diagnosis of papillomavirus infections.

Polypeptides and antibodies characteristics of papillomavirus, and

The present invention provides papillomavirus polypeptides and antibodies against said polypeptides. The peptides and antibodies of the present invention are particularly useful for in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of infections caused by distinct papillomaviruses. These papillomaviruses are linked to distinct infectious states. The polypeptides of the present invention are derived from L2 genes of different papillomaviruses (or from a portion of said genes). The present invention further provides kits containing one or more antibodies according to the present invention, and a method for the detection and identification of papillomaviruses in biological samples by immunological reaction with said antibodies. The diagnostic kits of the present invention are suitable for diagnosis of the specific infection affecting the donor subject of the biological sample, or infections to which the subject risks being exposed.

The invention relates to the DNAs of papillomaviruses, and more particularly to the probes derived from these papillomaviruses, as well as procedures for their implementation in the in vitro diagnosis of papillomavirus infection.

Papillomavirus probe and a process for in vitro diagnosis of

The invention relates to human papillomaviruses HPV, particularly to HPV-DNAs isolated from papillomaviruses HPV-2d, HPV-10b, HPV-14a, HPV-14b, HPV-15, HPV-17a, HPV-17b, HPV-19, HPV-20, HPV-21, HPV-22, HPV-23, HPV-24, HPV-28, HPV-29, HPV-31, HPV-32, HPV-IP2 and HPV-IP4. The invention also relates to DNA capable of hybridizing with the HPV-DNAs or fragments thereof, to kits containing distinct groups of probes containing one or more of these HPV-DNAs or fragments thereof, and to procedures for detecting and identifying HPV in tissue.

Papillomavirus probe and process for in vitro diagnosis of

The invention relates to papillomaviruses, particularly to DNA-HPVs isolated from the papillomaviruses IP5 and IP6, the restriction maps of which are presented in FIGS. 10 and 11, and also to probes containing these DNA-HPVs or fragments obtained from them. The invention relates, in addition, to 'kits' containing distinct groups of probes, containing one of these DNA-HPVs or DNA-HPV fragments, as well as a procedure for the detection and identification of papillomaviruses which makes use of these different probes.
