Abstract
The polynucleotide sequence fragment conferring immunologic specificity to papillomavirus (PV) has been located and isolated. From this information, assays for type-specific PV, including DNA probes, RNA probes, immunoassays and the like are produced. The vaccines against specific PVs may be produced also. Further, the genus-specific amino acid sequence of the L1 capsid protein has been identified.
