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 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 15, 2021The p.M53I pathogenic mutation (also known as c.159G>C), located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 159. The methionine at codon 53 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This mutation has been identified in many familial melanoma kindreds and has also been shown to segregate with disease multiple large families (FitzGerald MG et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1996 Aug;93:8541-5; Goldstein AM et al. J. Med. Genet., 2007 Feb;44:99-106; MacKie RM et al. J. Invest. Dermatol., 1998 Aug;111:269-72; Monzon et al. N Eng J Med 1998; 338(13): 879-87; Soufir N et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 1998 Feb;7(2):209-16; Walker GJ Hum. Mol. Genet. 1995 Oct; 4(10):1845-52; Flores JF et al. Oncogene 1997 Dec;15(24):2999-3005). In a Norwegian study, it was identified in multiple probands with melanoma and pancreatic cancer (Levin T and Maehle L Fam. Cancer. 2017 04;16(2):257-265). Functional analyses of proteins harboring the p.M53I substitution have consistently demonstrated impaired binding to CDK4. In some cases, the variant protein was also shown to have reduced association with CDK6 and/or impaired growth and colony formation (Becker TM et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2001 Oct;7(10):3282-8; Harland M et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 1997 Nov;6:2061-7; McKenzie et al. Hum Mutat 2010; 31(6): 692-701; Sun et al. Int J Cancer 1997; 73(4): 531-6; Walker et al. Int J Cancer 1999; 82(2): 305-12). Of note, this alteration is also designated as p.M45I in published literature. Haplotype analysis strongly suggests that the p.M53I mutation is likely a founder mutation, originating in Scotland (Lang J et al. Br. J. Dermatol., 2005 Dec;153:1121-5; Lang J et al. Genes Chromosomes Cancer, 2007 Mar;46:277-87). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 21, 2022The CDKN2A locus encodes two different gene products, p16INK4a and p14ARF (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK7030/). This missense variant replaces methionine with isoleucine at codon 53 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4A) protein. Computational prediction tool is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies reported defects in CDK binding, loss of cell cycle control and inhibition of cellular growth (PMID: 9328469, 9389568, 11595726, 20340136). This variant has been reported as a Scottish melanoma founder mutation (PMID 17171691) and observed in melanoma affected families in Europe, North America, and Australia (PMID 8595405, 9328469, 9389568, 9699728, 16234564, 16307646, 16896043, 16905682) and in individual(s) with pancreatic cancer with positive family history (PMID 25356972, 32482799). This variant has been identified in 2/221078 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of CDKN2A (p16INK4A) function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Familial melanoma Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 30, 2024The 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 methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 53 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Met53Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs104894095, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma (PMID: 8595405, 9328469, 9699728, 16307646, 16905682, 17171691). It is commonly reported in individuals of Scottish ancestry (PMID: 8595405, 9328469, 9699728, 16307646, 16905682, 17171691). This variant is also known as c.202G>C (p.Asp68His) in the CDKN2A (p14ARF) transcript. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9414). 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 affects CDKN2A (p16INK4a) function (PMID: 9328469, 9389568, 11595726). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While the evidence indicates that this variant confers risk of developing CDKN2A (p16INK4a)-associated conditions, its association with risk for developing CDKN2A (p14ARF)-associated conditions is still unclear. -
