Abstract excerpt
A newly recognized family of proteins that inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) termed cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKI) have an important role in regulation of cell-cycle progression. A subfamily of these CDKIs (p15INK4B/MTS2, p16INK4/MTS1, and p18) have a high degree of structural and functional homology and are candidate tumor-suppressor genes. We evaluated the mutational status of the p15, p16, and...
