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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 29, 2019Variant summary: CDKN2A c.405G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-05 in 272432 control chromosomes, predominantly within the East Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0011 in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 3.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CDKN2A causing Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma phenotype (0.0003), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. Moreover, the variant was also reported in Japanese healthy controls with a frequency of 0.0108 that is approximately 36-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CDKN2A causing Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma phenotype (0.0003), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian/Japanese origin (HGVD). The variant, c.405G>A, has been reported in the literature in individuals from the Japanese population, who were affected with different types of cancer, however without evidence supporting causality (Igaki_1995, Ohnishi_1995, Morita_1998, Takahira_2004). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign (1x) / likely benign (4x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
