Abstract excerpt
p16, also known as INK4a, CDKN2, or MTS1, plays an important role in the control of the cell cycle progression, and retinoblastoma protein (pRb) is suggested to be involved in the transcriptional regulation of p16. However, it is not fully understood how pRb regulates transcription of the p16 gene. Nuclear proteins prepared only from the pRb-nonfunctional human tumor cells were found to bind to the 5'-flanking...
