Description

cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including MDM2/MDM4 family protein binding activity; NF-kappaB binding activity; and enzyme inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose stimulus; negative regulation of hepatocyte proliferation; and nervous system development. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Used to study carcinoma (multiple); endometrial cancer; pre-malignant neoplasm; rhabdomyosarcoma; and sarcomatoid mesothelioma. Biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma; hypertension; obesity; and osteoarthritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including breast cancer (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); melanoma (multiple); nervous system cancer (multiple); and pancreatic cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human CDKN2A (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
