Genes affected
CEBPA (HGNC:1833): (CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha) This intronless gene encodes a transcription factor that contains a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) domain and recognizes the CCAAT motif in the promoters of target genes. The encoded protein functions in homodimers and also heterodimers with CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins beta and gamma. Activity of this protein can modulate the expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation as well as in body weight homeostasis. Mutation of this gene is associated with acute myeloid leukemia. The use of alternative in-frame non-AUG (GUG) and AUG start codons results in protein isoforms with different lengths. Differential translation initiation is mediated by an out-of-frame, upstream open reading frame which is located between the GUG and the first AUG start codons. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]

Submissions by phenotype

Acute myeloid leukemia Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 24, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 239 of the CEBPA protein (p.Pro239Ala). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CEBPA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 526802). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CEBPA protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJan 08, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the CEBPA gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.715C>G, in exon 1 that results in an amino acid change, p.Pro239Ala. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with CEBPA-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database in two individuals with an overall population frequency of 0.0075% (dbSNP rs1162371435). The p.Pro239Ala change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the CEBPA protein that is known to be functional. The p.Pro239Ala substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Pro239Ala change remains unknown at this time. -
