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 CDKN2A c.170C>G (p.Ala57Gly) variant (also known as c.213C>G (p.Arg71=) on the CDKN2A (p14) transcript) has been reported in the published literature in individuals with melanoma (PMIDs: 21462282 (2011), 18023021 (2008)), breast cancer (PMID: 29316957 (2018)), suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754 (2015)), as well as in one reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 22447455 (2012)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000079 (9/114328 chromosomes in European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Additional analysis using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant does not affect CDKN2A mRNA splicing. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with multiple primary melanoma or other cancers, but also in unselected controls (Helsing 2008, Miller 2011, Helsing 2012, Yurgelun 2015, Li 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 14735200, 18023021, 22447455, 21462282, 25980754, 29316957) -

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

This variant replaces alanine with glycine at codon 57 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4A) protein. Computational prediction tool suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with multiple primary melanoma (PMID: 18023021, 21462282), in an unaffected individual (PMID: 22447455), and in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or colorectal polyps who had a pathogenic CHEK2 variant (PMID: 25980754). This variant has been identified in 9/251530 chromosomes 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. -

The p.A57G variant (also known as c.170C>G), located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 170. The alanine at codon 57 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was observed in a patient with two primary melanomas and no family history of melanoma (Helsing P, Genes Chromosomes Cancer 2008 Feb; 47(2):175-84). In a subsequent study from the same authors, this alteration was detected in 1/420 controls (Helsing P, Genes Chromosomes Cancer 2012 Jul; 51(7):654-61). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 57 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Ala57Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs372266620, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome and sporadic multiple primary melanomas (PMID: 18023021, 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187272). 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 tolerated. 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. -
