    Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes virtually all cervical cancers and many cancers at other anatomical sites in both men and women. However, only 12 of 448 known HPV types are currently classified as carcinogens, and even the most carcinogenic type - HPV16 - only rarely leads to cancer. HPV is therefore necessary but insufficient for cervical cancer, with other contributing factors including host and viral genetics. Over the last decade, HPV whole genome sequencing has established that even fine-scale within-type HPV variation influences precancer/cancer risks, and that these risks vary by histology and host race/ethnicity. In this review, we place these findings in the context of the HPV life cycle and evolution at various levels of viral diversity: between-type, within-type, and within-host. We also discuss key concepts necessary for interpreting HPV genomic data, including features of the viral genome; events leading to carcinogenesis; the role of APOBEC3 in HPV infection and evolution; and methodologies that use deep (high-coverage) sequencing to characterize within-host variation, as opposed to relying on a single representative (consensus) sequence. Given the continued high burden of HPV-associated cancers, understanding HPV carcinogenicity remains important for better understanding, preventing, and treating cancers attributable to infection.

    Abstract High-coverage sequencing allows the study of variants occurring at low frequencies within samples, but is susceptible to false-positives caused by sequencing error. Ion Torrent has a very low single nucleotide variant (SNV) error rate and has been employed for the majority of human papillomavirus (HPV) whole genome sequences. However, benchmarking of intrahost SNVs (iSNVs) has been challenging, partly due to limitations imposed by the HPV life cycle. We address this problem by deep sequencing three replicates for each of 31 samples of HPV type 18 (HPV18). Errors, defined as iSNVs observed in only one of three replicates, are dominated by C→T (G→A) changes, independently of trinucleotide context. True iSNVs, defined as those observed in all three replicates, instead show a more diverse SNV type distribution, with particularly elevated C→T rates in CCG context (CCG→CTG; CGG→CAG) and C→A rates in ACG context (ACG→AAG; CGT→CTT). Characterization of true iSNVs allowed us to develop two methods for detecting true variants: (1) VCFgenie, a dynamic binomial filtering tool which uses each variant's allele count and coverage instead of fixed frequency cut-offs; and (2) a machine learning binary classifier which trains eXtreme Gradient Boosting models on variant features such as quality and trinucleotide context. Each approach outperforms fixed-cut-off filtering of iSNVs, and performance is enhanced when both are used together. Our results provide improved methods for identifying true iSNVs in within-host applications across sequencing platforms, specifically using HPV18 as a case study.
