The INK4A locus on 9p21 is deleted or rearranged in a large number of human cancers. The locus encodes two unrelated and independently acting negative cell-cycle regulators, p16 and p19 ARF , arising in alternate reading frames from a partly shared sequence. We analyzed five human melanoma cell line
