Seven novel human papillomavirus (HPV) types were isolated and characterized. HPV 94 is related most closely to HPV 10 and belongs to the genus Alphapapillomavirus, whereas HPV 98, HPV 99, HPV 100, HPV 104, HPV 105 and HPV 113 all belong to the genus Betapapillomavirus. These HPV types were isolated from and demonstrated in cutaneous tissue, but HPV 98, HPV 100, HPV 104 and HPV 113 were also detected in malignant oesophageal and oral lesions. The general prevalence of these HPV types in lesions is infrequent.
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the complete genome sequences of HPV 94, HPV 98, HPV 99, HPV 100, HPV 104, HPV 105 and HPV 113 are AJ620211 and FM955837–FM955842, respectively.
