Abstract excerpt
Altered expression or function of the p16CDKN2 tumor suppressor gene on chromosome 9p21 occurs in a wide range of human tumors, and mutations in the gene have been shown to segregate with familial predisposition to malignant melanoma. We have used a variety of assays to examine the functional properties of tumor-associated alleles, including eight premature termination mutants, eight missense mutants, and three...
