摘要

The invention relates to papillomavirus probes derived from new DNA-HPVs deposited with the CNCM on the May 6, 1988 under the following filing numbers: PGEM 4 HPV49: I-754 PSP 65 HPV50: I-755 PSP 64 HPV54: I-756 PGEM 4 HPV55A: I-757 PGEM 4 HPV55B: I-758 These probes can be used for in vitro detection of: in the case of HPV49: warts of the skin (in particular, common and plantar warts) and the differential diagnosis of epidermodysplasia verruciformis, in the case of HPV50: epidermodysplasia verruciformis, intra-epithelial neoplasias and cutaneous cancers, in the case of HPV55: genital neoplasias and cancers of the uterine cervix, in the case of HPV55: genital neoplasias and cancers of the uterine cervix, condylomas and papillomas.
