Abstract excerpt
The CDKN2 (MTS1/p16INK4A) gene, encoding cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor, was found to be homozygously deleted at a high frequency in cell lines from many different types of cancer and some primary cancers. To determine the frequency of CDKN2 mutations in most common human cancers in Korea, PCR and PCR-SSCP analyses for the exon 2 of CDKN2 were performed on each set of 20 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded...
