A novel human papillomavirus sequence from an international cervical cancer study.
Novel human papillomaviruses (HPVs) were sought as part of a recent international study of > 1000 invasive cervical carcinomas. A single novel HPV designated IS39 was identified in this study. IS39 is most closely related to another novel virus, W13B (MM4), variants of W13B (MM4), and HPV-51.
