Genes affected
CDKN2A (HGNC:1787): (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A) This gene generates several transcript variants which differ in their first exons. At least three alternatively spliced variants encoding distinct proteins have been reported, two of which encode structurally related isoforms known to function as inhibitors of CDK4 kinase. The remaining transcript includes an alternate first exon located 20 Kb upstream of the remainder of the gene; this transcript contains an alternate open reading frame (ARF) that specifies a protein which is structurally unrelated to the products of the other variants. This ARF product functions as a stabilizer of the tumor suppressor protein p53 as it can interact with, and sequester, the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MDM2, a protein responsible for the degradation of p53. In spite of the structural and functional differences, the CDK inhibitor isoforms and the ARF product encoded by this gene, through the regulatory roles of CDK4 and p53 in cell cycle G1 progression, share a common functionality in cell cycle G1 control. This gene is frequently mutated or deleted in a wide variety of tumors, and is known to be an important tumor suppressor gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 03, 2022The c.407dupG variant, located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a duplication of G at nucleotide position 407, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T137Hfs*5). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theCDKN2A gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay, and only impacts the last 20 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown. This alteration has been reported in a cohort of 204 Italian melanoma families and was not seen in 200 control subjects (Bruno W et al. J Am Acad Dermatol, 2009 Nov;61:775-82). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthSep 12, 2023This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 2 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4A) gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. The mutant transcript is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay and expressed as a truncated protein missing the C-terminus of the ankyrin repeat domain. However the variant occurs after the last conserved helix and invariant Tyr-Leu (YL) motif (PMID: 8880901). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. The variant has been reported in an individual affected with familial melanoma (PMID: 19500876) and an individual with an advanced colorectal adenoma (PMID: 33436027). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoFeb 16, 2021This sequence change results in an amino acid frameshift and creates a premature stop codon 4 amino acids downstream of the change, p.Thr137Hisfs*5. This sequence change results in a stop codon at the 3' end of CDKN2A, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and is expected to modify 4 amino acids and delete the last 16 amino acids of the resultant protein. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.0020% (dbSNP rs748022323). This sequence change has been reported in a family affected with melanoma (PMID: 19500876) and was not identified in 200 controls. Due to the location of this variant and the prediction that it does not trigger nonsense mediated decay, and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of this variant remains unknown at this time. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 06, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation as the last 20 amino acids are replaced with 4 different amino acids, although loss-of-function variants have not been reported downstream of this position in the protein; Identified in an individual with a personal and family history of melanoma (Bruno et al., 2009); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19500876) -
Familial melanoma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 15, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr137Hisfs*5) in the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 20 amino acid(s) of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma (PMID: 19500876). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 483327). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
