ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides papillomavirus polypeptides and antibodies against said polypeptides. The peptides and antibodies of the present invention are particularly useful for in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of infections caused by distinct papillomaviruses. These papillomaviruses are linked to distinct infectious states. The polypeptides of the present invention are derived from L2 genes of different papillomaviruses (or from a portion of said genes). The present invention further provides kits containing one or more antibodies according to the present invention, and a method for the detection and identification of papillomaviruses in biological samples by immunological reaction with said antibodies. The diagnostic kits of the present invention are suitable for diagnosis of the specific infection affecting the donor subject of the biological sample, or infections to which the subject risks being exposed.
