Bisulfite genomic sequencing PCR (BGS) combined with TA clone, methylation-specific PCR (MSP) were used to analyze methylation statuses of the STK31 gene promoter/exon 1 region in HPV16/18-positive, HPV-negative CC cell lines; ectopically expressed HPV16 E6, -E7, and -E6/E7 CC cells; normal cervical tissues and cervical tumor tissues of different stages. Here, STK31 is linked to uterine cervix neoplasm.
