A polymorphism at codon 72 of the p53 gene, resulting in either an arginine or a proline residue in the protein, has been reported to affect the susceptibility of p53 to human papillomavirus (HPV) E6-mediated degradation in cultured cells. However, the relevance of this polymorphism to naturally occ
