HPV-transforming protein E6 weakens both SAC activity and sister chromatid cohesion. These processes largely function normally and result in chromosome segregation errors only when mitosis is delayed by the presence of one to four unaligned, pole-associated chromosomes. This mechanism of aneuploidy is not observed in response to oncogenic signaling.
