Abstract
The retinoblastoma protein (RB) and p53 transcription factor are regulated by two distinct proteins that are encoded by the INK4a/ARF locus. Genes encoding these four tumour suppressors are disabled, either in whole or in part, in most human cancers. A complex signalling network that interconnects the activities of RB and p53 monitors oncogenic stimuli to provide a cell-autonomous mode of tumour surveillance.Entities:
