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]

The p.G101R variant (also known as c.301G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 301. The glycine at codon 101 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. Of note, this alteration is also known as c.344G>A (p.G115R)in the p14(ARF) isoform. This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal and/or family history of melanoma or pancreatic cancer (Potrony M et al. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol., 2014 Nov;71:888-95; Zhen DB et al. Genet Med, 2015 Jul;17:569-77; Bruno W et al. J Am Acad Dermatol, 2016 Feb;74:325-32; Karagianni F et al. Acta Derm. Venereol., 2018 Oct;98:862-866). A functional study reported this variant as neutral based on in-vitro assessment of impact on proliferation in human pancreatic cancer cell lines (Kimura H et al. Elife, 2022 01;11). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Familial melanoma Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 21801156, 25356972). The CDKN2A gene encodes two different proteins, p16INK4a and p14ARF, which are translated from alternative transcripts with different open reading frames. Both transcripts have been analyzed. We report either the variant with the higher classification or default to the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) variant. This report therefore includes the details for the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) variant. This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 101 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Gly101Arg). 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 variant is also known as c.344G>A (p.Arg115Gln) in the CDKN2A (p14ARF) transcript. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 463494). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect CDKN2A (p16INK4a) function (PMID: 12606942, 21462282, 35001868). This variant disrupts the p.Gly101 amino acid residue in CDKN2A (p16INK4a). Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10869234, 11807902, 14679123, 15146471, 21462282, 21801156). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
