Ambry Genetics | RCV004952750 | SCV005559298 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-06-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.A86T variant (also known as c.256G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the CDKN2A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 256. The alanine at codon 86 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. Of note, this variant is also known as c.299G>A (p.C100Y) in the p14(ARF) isoform. This variant has been reported in an Italian family with multiple cases of melanoma and was absent from controls; however, specific clinical details were not provided (Bruno W et al. J Am Acad Dermatol, 2009 Nov;61:775-82). This variant also segregated with disease in 2 of 3 affected siblings from a Finnish family with melanoma, although ages of onset were 57 years or older, and one carrier individual remained unaffected at age 80 (Hemminki K et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2020 Jul;18:15). 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 available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. |
