We present two examples of exponential nucleic acid amplification with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the presence of only one amplification primer. Cloning and sequencing of the PCR products generated by amplification of human genomic DNA revealed that the amplified sequence contained only

Abstract
Two previous studies have reported the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) genomic sequences in colorectal cancers. We examined DNAs from 50 colorectal tumors for HPV sequences by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), using HPV consensus L1 primers for amplification. The PCR products were screened with a generic HPV probe consisting of amplimers of HPVβ16 and HPVβ18. All tumor DNAs were negative for HPV sequences. These results call into the question the reported association of colorectal cancers with HPVs. Β© 1992 WileyβLiss, Inc.
