Background
The immunogen for the anti-human p16 was a recombinant full length p16 protein recognizing a 16kDa protein. The p16ink4a tumor suppressor protein shows no cross reactivity with the closely related inhibitors such as p15ink4b and p18ink4c. p16ink4a is a specific inhibitor of cdk4/cdk6, and is a tumor suppressor involved in the pathogenesis of a number of malignancies including melanoma and lung carcinoma. It can be used in immunohistochemistry as an indicator of HPV infection in cervical and head and neck (pre)malignancies.
Synonyms: hp16; p16 ink4a; Cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A, isoforms 1/2/3; Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor A; CDK4I
