Abstract Background A human papillomavirus HPV virion is composed of capsid proteins L1 and L2. Several cysteine residues are located on L1 of various HPVs at markedly similar relative positions suggesting their important functions. Although the authentic virions cannot be studied with cultured cells surrogate pseudovirions consisting of capsid and reporter plasmid are available for studies dealing with infectivity. Results HPV type16-pseudovirions 16PVs were found to lose their .
