Potential role of micro ribonucleic acids in screening for anal cancer in human papilloma virus and human immunodeficiency virus related malignancies

Figure 3 Human papillomavirus genome organization and function. Human papillomavirus (HPV) has a circular double-stranded genome, which is divided into three regions: early, late, and non-coding long control region. The latter regulates transcription and replication of viral deoxyribonucleic acid. The early and late regions encode eight proteins whose major functions are shown.
