Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the predominant viral infection, which causes various new cancer cases globally each year, encompassing cervical and various other cancer types. HPVs have developed throughout the course of millions of years to replicate inside various animal species, including humans. Co-evolved viruses, in this manner, gradually induce persistent asymptomatic infections, characterized by virion production without evident illness. This study aims to assess the HPV protein sequence and perform structure-based functional evaluations, collecting data on its physicochemical properties, domain predictions for targeted functional forecasts, and protein-protein interaction networks, as well as predicting and analyzing both 2D and 3D structures. The physicochemical analysis revealed that the protein contained a greater number of negatively charged residues compared to positively charged residues in its sequence. The GRAVY value indicated that this protein exhibits hydrophilic characteristics. The protein contains a polyadenylate-binding protein that binds to the poly(A) tail of the mRNA and acts as a post-transcriptional regulator. Gene ontology analysis has explained protein associations within cellular, molecular, and biological processes. An interaction between the specified protein and ten other proteins was established by the PPI network. The evaluation of the secondary structure indicated that the random coil was the predominant structural element, followed by the alpha helix and extended strand. Furthermore, the protein's 3D structure was predicted using three distinct programs: AlphaFold, I-TASSER, and SWISS-MODEL. Following the evaluation of the 3D structure, the result showed that SWISS-MODEL predicted a superior configuration. The functional protein is associated with post-transcriptional regulation and can be targeted to model novel therapeutic interventions against the infection caused by HPV.
