Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM1BP4_ModerateBS2
The NM_000077.5(CDKN2A):c.25A>T(p.Met9Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000561 in 1,604,328 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M9K) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:2 
The p.M9L variant (also known as c.25A>T), located in coding exon 1 of the CDKN2A gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 25. The methionine at codon 9 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
The CDKN2A locus encodes two different gene products, p16INK4a and p14ARF (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK7030/). This missense variant replaces methionine with leucine at codon 9 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4A) protein. Computational prediction 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/31298 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. -

Melanoma and neural system tumor syndrome    Uncertain:1 
This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
not provided    Uncertain:1 
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30981987, 30857943) -
Familial melanoma    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 9 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Met9Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CDKN2A (p16INK4a)-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 483321). 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. -
