General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function during entry of human papillomaviruses into host cells, the major capsid protein L1 undergoes proteolytic cleavage during entry of the host cell. At least two proteolytic cleavages of L1 are observed, one of which is independent of the low-pH environment of endosomes and mediated by kallikrein-8. KLK8-mediated cleavage is crucial for further conformational changes exposing an important epitope of the minor capsid protein L2. KLK8-mediated cleavage of L1 likely facilitates access to L2, located in the capsid lumen, and potentially uncoating Homo sapiens
