Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% Paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% TritonX-100 permeabilized 293T (human embryonic kidney epithelial cell) cells labelling Human papillomavirus L2 protein with ab322523 at 1/1000 (1.04 ug/ml) dilution, followed by ab150117 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed antibody at 1/1000 (2ug/ml) dilution (Green).

Confocal image showing positive staining in 293T cells transfected with a Human papillomavirus type 18 L2 protein, a Human papillomavirus type 16 L2 protein, a Human papillomavirus type 31 L2 protein, a Human papillomavirus type 45 L2 protein, a Human papillomavirus type 51 L2 protein, a Human papillomavirus type 6B L2 protein and a Human papillomavirus type 11 L2 protein expression vector containing a myc-His-tag®(shown in green). The counterstain was observed in magenta. Nuclear DNA was labeled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Image was taken with a confocal microscope(Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Target data

Minor protein of the capsid that localizes along the inner surface of the virion, within the central cavities beneath the L1 pentamers. Plays a role in capsid stabilization through interaction with the major capsid protein L1. Once the virion enters the host cell, L2 escorts the genomic DNA into the nucleus by promoting escape from the endosomal compartments and traffic through the host Golgi network. Mechanistically, the C-terminus of L2 possesses a cell-penetrating peptide that protudes from the host endosome, interacts with host cytoplasmic retromer cargo and thereby mediates the capsid delivery to the host trans-Golgi network. Plays a role through its interaction with host dynein in the intracellular microtubule-dependent transport of viral capsid toward the nucleus. Mediates the viral genome import into the nucleus through binding to host importins. Once within the nucleus, L2 localizes viral genomes to host PML bodies in order to activate early gene expression for establishment of infection. Later on, promotes late gene expression by interacting with the viral E2 protein and by inhibiting its transcriptional activation functions. During virion assembly, encapsidates the genome by direct interaction with the viral DNA.
