Alterations of the p16INK4 locus in human malignant mesothelial tumors

1 Jul 2002

Abstract excerpt

The INK4 locus has two promoters and encodes two unique proteins that share exons in different reading frames, p16(INK4a) and p14(ARF). The p16(INK4a) protein, by inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinase, down regulates Rb-E2F and leads to cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. The p14(ARF) protein interacts with the MDM2 protein, neutralizing MDM2-mediated degradation of p53. Since p53/Rb genes are not altered in...
