Germline mutations within the CDKN2A gene, coding for the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16, have been detected by screening in 8% of Swedish families with an inheritance of cutaneous melanoma (FMM) and dysplastic nevus syndrome (DNS). Contrastingly, the closely related gene CDKN2B had no diseas
## Abstract The __MDM2__ and __CDK4__ genes are the main targets of chromosome 12 amplification in well‐differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcomas. Nevertheless, around 10% of these tumors do not amplify __CDK4__. To find substitutive alterations of __CDK4__ amplification, we analyzed a large
