The p16Ink4/MTS1/CDKN2 is a cell-cycle regulatory inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (cdk4), and a candidate tumour suppressor whose gene on chromosome band 9p21 is frequently deleted or mutated in diverse types of cancer. Cdk4 in association with its D-type cyclin partners, together with p16Ink4, and the product of the retinoblastoma tumour-suppressor gene (pRB), appear to constitute a G1-phase-controlling...
