Objective: To study the interaction of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16 E6) protein and human death do-main associated protein (hDaxx) and its effect on apoptosis of HeLa cells to provide the experimental basis for exploring the oncogenic mechanism of HPV16 E6 protein. Methods: Recombinant vector of pGADT7/E6 or pGBKT7/hDaxx was con-structed. The interaction of E6 protein and hDaxx was detected by yeast two-hybrid system. Their expression in yeast was detected by Western blotting. The eukaryotic plasmids of E6 and hDaxx were co-transfected into HeLa cells. Apoptosis was induced by 5-FU. The apoptotic rate was measured by flow cytometry (FCM). Results: E6 protein had intracellular interaction with hDaxx. The apoptotic rate was rising with the increase in the transfection quantity of pcDNA3.1 (-)/ hDaxx in pcDNA3.1 (-)/E6 and pcDNA3.1 (-) / hDaxx co-transfected cells. The difference was significant ( P < 0. 01). Conclusion: There is intracellular interaction between HPV16 E6 protein and hDaxx. The over-expression of hDaxx can increase the sensitivity of E6 protein positive HeLa cells to 5-FU. The effect was in a dose dependent manner. HPV16 E6 protein inhibited the apoptosis of HeLa cells by interacting with hDaxx.
