The tumor suppressor p16<sup>INK4A</sup> induces cell cycle arrest and senescence in response to oncogenic transformation and is therefore frequently lost in cancer. p16<sup>INK4A</sup> is also known to accumulate under conditions of oxidative stress. Thus, we hypothesized it could potentially be regulated by reversible oxidation of cysteines (redox signaling). Here we report that oxidation of the single cysteine in p16<sup>INK4A</sup> in human cells occurs under relatively mild oxidizing condit ...[more]
