Embodiments of the invention provide methods, assays, and kits for detecting HPV infection and HPV associated epithelial cell abnormalities, most notably those associated with pre-malignant and malignant epithelial cell lesions. Detection of HPV DNAs, genomes, and/or oncoproteins by nucleic acid hybridization assays and immunological assays can be used in early clinical screening for HPV infection and diagnosis for cervical cancer. The polypeptides, recombinant proteins, antibodies, nucleic acids, and various detection methods thereof are particularly useful for diagnosing carcinomas of the uterine cervix and those at risk of developing cervical cancer. |
