MmuPV1 E6 cellular targets and the outcomes of these interactions. MmuPV1 E6 has been shown to interact with MAML1 and SMAD2/SMAD3 which are critical co-activators of NOTCH and TGF-β signaling, respectively [98]. MmuPV1 E6 binds to these important transcriptional activators and prevents their ability to promote transcriptional activation of NOTCH and TGF-β responsive genes following stimulation with appropriate ligand. One important biological outcome of these interactions is the inhibition of keratinocyte differentiation [98].
