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.G63R variant (also known as c.187G>C), located in coding exon 1 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 187. The glycine at codon 63 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. A 47 year old male patient with malignant melanoma at age 43, from an Italian melanoma family, was reported to have this variant; this individual did not have the pathogenic CDKN2A p.R24P mutation that was present in other family members (Della Torre G et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2001 Sep;85:836-44). This variant has been reported in individuals with single primary melanoma and with multiple primary melanomas (Goldstein AM et al. J. Med. Genet. 2008 May;45:284-9; Pastorino L et al. Pigment Cell Melanoma Res. 2008 Dec;21:700-9; Bruno W et al. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol. 2016 Feb;74:325-32). However, in other studies this variant has been reported in both melanoma cases controls (Harland M et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract. 2014 Nov;12:20). Using a minigene assay to investigate mRNA splicing regulation, this variant had a differential splicing pattern from wild-type (Balogh K et al. Br. J. Dermatol. 2012 Jul;167:131-3). This variant has also been reported in studies of patients with pancreatic cancer (Ghiorzo P et al. J. Med. Genet. 2012 Mar;49:164-70; Grant RC et al. Gastroenterology. 2015 Mar;148:556-64). It was also identified in a cohort of 681 ancestrally diverse, healthy subjects (Bodian DL et al. PLoS ONE. 2014 Apr;9:e94554); and it was detected as a secondary finding in 4 out of 567 ClinSeq participants, unselected for personal or family history of cancer, who underwent exome sequencing (Johnston JJ et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Jul;91:97-108). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.150+37G>C and IVS150+37G>C in the published literature. Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
