Germline mutations of the CDKN2A gene are found in melanoma-prone families and individuals with multiple sporadic melanomas. The encoded protein, p16(INK4A), comprises four ankyrin-type repeats, and the mutations, most of which are missense and occur throughout the entire coding region, can disrupt

## Abstract Approximately 50% of all melanoma families worldwide show linkage to 9p21‐22, but only about half of these have been shown to contain germ line __CDKN2A__ mutations. It has been hypothesized that a proportion of these families carry mutations in the noncoding regions of __CDKN2A.__ Seve

## Abstract __CDKN2A__ is a major susceptibility gene for cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), but the variable penetrance and clinical manifestations among mutation carriers suggest the existence of modifier factors. The goal of this study was to identify modifier genes for CMM in CMM‐prone familie
