Using synthetic peptides we have shown that positively charged sequences present at the C terminus of the L1 protein and the N and C termini of the L2 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) bind to both DNA and heparan sulfate receptors. Moreover, these short amino acid sequences are sufficient to mediate gene transfer in COS-7 cells. The L1 proteins of other HPVs were shown to contain one or two DNA- and heparin-binding sequences that have the capacity to transfer genes. These DNA-binding sequences also recognized the enhancing packaging sequence of bovine papillomavirus type 1. The results suggest that the L2 protein could participate in DNA packaging during maturation of virions.
