p19INK4d in the Cell Cyclep19INK4d in the Cell Cycle
CDK Inhibitor p19INK4d is a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor in the INK4 family of CDK inhibitors, which includes p16INK4a, p15INK4b,and p18INK4c. Progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle and subsequent entry into the S phase depend on the phosphorylating effects of CDK4 and CDK6. These two CDKs must form cyclin-CDK complexes to phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein, inhibiting its growth-suppressing function, and triggering an E2F-dependent transcriptional program necessary for entry into S phase. The INK4 family members specifically bind to CDK4 and CDK6, inhibiting cyclin-CDK complexation and obstructing the progression of G1 phase.

The four INK4 proteins share a similar sturcture consisting of either four (p15 & p16) or five (p18 and p19) ankyrin repeats (AR).
