Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections cause 500.000 cases of cervical cancer each year in the world (400 cases in Sweden), and 250.000 deaths (120 cases in Sweden). HPV16 is the most common cancer-associated HPV type. The majority of all HPV16 infections is cleared by the host but a fraction persists that may cause cancer. The full life cycle of HPV16 requires cell proliferation at the early stage
