Indeed, several melanoma-associated mutations (e.g., N-terminal 24bp p16INK4a duplication, Arg24Pro, Leu117Pro) retained CDK4 and/or CDK6 binding activity even though they displayed diminished cell cycle inhibitory activity, suggesting that other p16INK4a binding interactions may be important in melanoma susceptibility [69,72]. The gene discussed is CDK4; the disease is melanoma.
