Many viral proteins influence the cellular pathways that control cell proliferation and cell death. Some viral proteins trigger apoptotic cell death, and this may be important in host defense and viral spread. In other cases, viral proteins inhibit apoptosis. In this chapter, we will describe some of the methods that can be used to investigate the induction or inhibition of apoptosis by papillomavirus proteins.
