Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000077.5(CDKN2A):c.67G>T(p.Gly23Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G23R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 23 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Gly23Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma (PMID: 12001124, 21462282; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 429109). 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: 24659262). This variant disrupts the p.Gly23 amino acid residue in CDKN2A (p16INK4a). Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9425228, 17992122, 19260062, 19712690, 20340136, 21462282, 24659262). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: CDKN2A c.67G>T (p.Gly23Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 235382 control chromosomes. c.67G>T has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with multiple primary melanoma (e.g., Blackwood_2012, Miller_2011). At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated that this variant results in increased cellular proliferation, indicating a loss of p16 (INK4A) function (e.g., Scaini_2014). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12001124, 21462282, 24659262). Three submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014; two submitters classified the variant as likely pathogenic and one submitter classified the variant as uncertain significance. Additionally, several other different missense variants affecting the same codon, including p.Gly23Arg, p.Gly23Ser, and p.Gly23Asp, have been reported in affected individuals (PMIDs: 17992122, 9425228, 32482799) and experimental studies suggest that several of these missense variants disupt protein function (PMID: 24659262). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

The p.G23C variant (also known as c.67G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 67. The glycine at codon 23 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in multiple individuals with personal and family histories of melanoma (Blackwood MA et al. Cancer 2002 Apr; 94(8):2248-55; Ambry internal data). This variant is predicted to be likely deleterious using a combination of in silico analyses and results of a proliferation assay consistent with loss of protein function (Scaini MC et al. Hum. Mutat. 2014 Jul;35(7):828-40). In addition, structural analysis predicts that the p.G23C variant results in severe perturbation of the protein, likely resulting in misfolding and loss of binding (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
