Functional and physical interactions of the ARF tumor suppressor with p53 and Mdm2
7 Jul 1998
Abstract excerpt
The INK4a-ARF locus encodes two proteins, p16(INK4a) and p19(ARF), that restrain cell growth by affecting the functions of the retinoblastoma protein and p53, respectively. Disruption of this locus by deletions or point mutations is a common event in human cancer, perhaps second only to the loss of p53. Using insect cells infected with baculovirus vectors and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts infected with ARF retrovirus, we...
