DNA FOR EVALUATING THE PROGRESSION POTENTIAL OF CERVICAL LESIONS

摘要

A nucleic acid is suitable for evaluating the progression potential of cervical lesions. The nucleic acid is obtained by a process in which RNA from early and late passages of HPV-immortalised cells is isolated, the RNA's characteristic for the early and late passages are identified and provided as DNA or RNA. Also disclosed are polypeptides coded by this nucleic acid, antibodies against these polypeptides, the use of the DNA and polypeptides and a kit for evaluating the progression of cervical lesions.
