Deciphering the Network Architecture of APOBEC3-Driven Mutagenesis in HPV-Positive Head and Neck Cancers

APOBEC3A (A3A) and APOBEC3B (A3B) are cytosine deaminases that restrict viral infection and can also mutate the host genome. In human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), expression of both enzymes is elevated, but bulk sequencing averages their effects across mixed cell populations. Here we profile single cells from HPV16-positive HNSCC tumors and matched…
