p16(INK4A) positively regulates p21(WAF1) expression by suppressing AUF1-dependent mRNA decay.

BACKGROUND: p16(INK4a) and p21(WAF1) are two independent cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors encoded by the CDKN2A and CDKN1A genes, respectively. p16(INK4a) and p21(WAF1) are similarly involved in various anti-cancer processes, including the regulation of the critical G1 to S phase transition of the...
