9p21 LOH
27 September 2004Alteration of the CDKN2A (alias p16) tumor suppressor gene, located on 9p21, occurs frequently in familial and sporadic melanomas.
Beside CDKN2A, other genes (e.g., CDKN2B, and ARF/p14(ARF), long considered distinct from CDKN2A) on this locus are often deleted or mutated in a large number of tumors including glioma, bladder cancer, and lung cancer.
Target genes
CDKN2A (p16 or p16-INK4 and p14-ARF) (MIM.600160)
CDKN2B (p15 or INK4B) (MIM.600431)
ARF/p14(ARF)
