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 Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R99L variant (also known as c.296G>T), located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 296. The arginine at codon 99 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. Of note, this variant is also known as c.339G>T (p.P113P) in the p14(ARF) isoform. 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. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

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. This variant disrupts the p.Arg99 amino acid residue in CDKN2A (p16INK4a). Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 2319082, 19260062, 20340316; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CDKN2A (p16INK4a)-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 99 of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a) protein (p.Arg99Leu). -
