Nucleotide sequence and phylogenetic classification of human papillomavirus type 67.
The complete nucleotide sequence of human papillomavirus type 67 (HPV 67) cloned from a vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia, has been determined. It consists of 7801 nucleotides with a GC content of 38.4% and exhibits similar genome organizations of genital HPVs. By phylogenetic analysis based on the full nucleotide sequences of E6 open reading frame of 28 genital HPVs, HPV 67 was clustered with HPV 16, 31, 33, 34, 35, 52, and 58.
