A novel mutation in the upstream open reading frame of the CDKN1B gene causes a MEN4 phenotype.

A novel mutation in the upstream open reading frame of the CDKN1B gene causes a MEN4 phenotype.

The CDKN1B gene encodes the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(KIP1), an atypical tumor suppressor playing a key role in cell cycle regulation, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Impaired p27(KIP1) expression and/or localization are often observed in tumor cells, further confirming its cent...
