The INK4A/ARF locus on chromosome 9 is one of the sites mutated most frequently in
human cancer. Two genes comprising overlapping reading frames encoding p16INK4a and
p19ARF have been discovered at this locus and, remarkably, both play an important role in
regulating cell growth, survival and senescence.
