CDKN1B and neoplasm: Following this discovery, we identified a germline heterozygous nonsense mutation at codon 76 (c.692G>A, p.W76X) of the human CDKN1B gene in several members of a family with a variant of the MEN1 syndrome, thereby demonstrating that CDKN1B is a tumor susceptibility gene also in humans (Pellegata et al., 2006).
