Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The CDKN2A c.183G>A (p.Glu61=) variant has not been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC and has not been reported in ClinVar.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and observed at 0/1,596,036 alleles in gnomAD v4.1 (AF 0.00000%), which is below the 0.1% PM2 rarity threshold.
3
In silico data support a silent variant without splice effect: the protein consequence is p.(Glu61=), SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, and REVEL is 0.083.
Final determination:
The combination of PM2_Moderate and BP7_Supporting does not meet ACMG/AMP thresholds for pathogenic, likely pathogenic, likely benign, or benign classification; therefore the variant is classified as of uncertain significance.
Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | This variant is a synonymous change, p.(Glu61=), and does not fall into the generic PVS1 null-variant categories of nonsense, frameshift, or canonical +/-1,2 splice-site variants. Although CDKN2A loss of function is an established germline disease mechanism, available evidence does not support applying PVS1 to this specific variant. |

prefetch
|
| PS1 | N/A | This variant does not alter the amino acid sequence and therefore does not meet the requirement for the same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant. |
prefetch
clinvar
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo data with verified maternity and paternity were identified for this variant. |
literature_pass
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional studies showing a damaging effect on CDKN2A function or splicing were identified for this variant. |

spliceai
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified showing this variant is enriched in affected individuals compared with controls. |
clinvar
literature_pass
|
| PM1 | Not met | Available evidence does not support location in a mutational hotspot or other well-established critical functional domain without benign variation. Cancer Hotspots did not identify a statistically significant hotspot at this residue. |
hotspots
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and observed at 0/1,596,036 alleles in gnomAD v4.1 (AF 0.00000%), which is below the 0.1% rarity threshold and supports rarity in population databases. |

|
| PM3 | Not assessed | No data were identified showing this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant in a recessive disorder. |
literature_pass
|
| PM4 | N/A | This variant is a synonymous substitution and does not change protein length or create an in-frame deletion or insertion. |
prefetch
|
| PM5 | N/A | This criterion applies to a novel missense change at a residue with a different established pathogenic missense change. This variant is synonymous and does not create a missense substitution. |
prefetch
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No assumed de novo occurrence data were identified for this variant. |
literature_pass
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified to show that this variant tracks with disease in affected family members. |
literature_pass
|
| PP2 | N/A | This criterion is intended for missense variants in genes where missense variation is a common disease mechanism. This variant is synonymous. |
prefetch
|
| PP3 | N/A | This variant is synonymous and available computational data do not predict a deleterious effect. SpliceAI shows a maximum delta score of 0.00, arguing against a splice impact. |

prefetch
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No phenotype or family-history information was provided to determine whether the clinical presentation is highly specific for a CDKN2A-related disorder. |
|
| PP5 | Not assessed | No reputable source classification supporting pathogenicity was identified for this variant. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | Population frequency does not meet the standalone benign threshold. In gnomAD v4.1 the allele frequency is 0.00000% (0/1,596,036 alleles), which is below the 1% BA1 threshold. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | Population frequency does not exceed the strong benign threshold. In gnomAD v4.1 the allele frequency is 0.00000% (0/1,596,036 alleles), which is below the 0.3% BS1 threshold. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified showing this variant in healthy adults at a frequency inconsistent with disease penetrance. |
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional studies demonstrating no damaging effect were identified for this variant. |
literature_pass
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No family data were identified to show lack of segregation with disease. |
literature_pass
|
| BP1 | N/A | This criterion applies to missense variants. This variant is synonymous. |
prefetch
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No phase data were identified to show this variant occurs in trans with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder or in cis with a pathogenic variant. |
literature_pass
|
| BP3 | N/A | This criterion applies to in-frame deletions or insertions in repetitive regions. This variant is a synonymous single-nucleotide substitution. |
prefetch
|
| BP4 | N/A | For this synonymous variant, splice prediction is more appropriately considered under BP7 rather than BP4. Available computational data do not indicate a splice-disrupting effect. |
spliceai
prefetch
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that the reported phenotype is explained by an alternate molecular cause independent of this variant. |
|
| BP6 | Not assessed | No reputable source classification supporting a benign interpretation was identified for this variant. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | Met | This variant is a synonymous substitution, p.(Glu61=), with no predicted effect on the protein sequence, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00. These findings support a silent change without evidence of splice disruption. |
