A new human papillomavirus type (HPV 41). distantly related to known HPV prototypes, was isolated from a patient with disseminated facial, peri-anal and foot warts (epidermodysplasia verruciformis was not diagnosed). The viral DNA was molecularly cloned in 2 BarnHl restriction fragments with sizes o

โฆ Synopsis
DNA from a human laryngeal carcinoma was molecularly cloned in Lambda L47. The gene library was screened for human papillomavirus (HPV)-related sequences by hybridization analysis with 32P-labelled HPV 16 DNA at conditions of low stringency (Tm -40 degrees C). One of the clones (4-5) with an insert of 7.8 kb showed cross-hybridization with most of the known HPV types (Tm -40 degrees C), and with several of them even under more stringent conditions (Tm -30 degrees C). No signal was detected under high-stringency conditions (Tm -20 degrees C). The co-linear alignment of clone 4-5 with HPV 16 DNA could be demonstrated by hybridization experiments and also by partial DNA sequence analysis. We conclude that clone 4-5 represents a new HPV type tentatively designated HPV 30. HPV 30 DNA was also detected in 2 genital lesions but not in 41 laryngeal carcinomas analyzed so far. Its presence in other tumor DNA is now under investigation.

Choristoneura hormone receptor 3 (CHR3) is a 20E (20-hydroxyecdysone)induced delayed early gene that is homologous to Manduca hormone receptor 3 (MHR3), Drosophila hormone receptor 3 (DHR3), and Galleria hormone receptor 3 (GHR3). We recently cloned and characterized a cDNA that was copied from the
