CCND1 encodes cyclin D1, a cell-cycle regulator that partners with CDK4 and CDK6 to drive the transition from G1 to S phase, promoting cell growth, proliferation, and division. It helps control these processes by phosphorylating and inactivating the RB tumor suppressor, which in turn releases the E2F transcription program needed for cell-cycle entry. CCND1 is a well-established oncogene: its amplification or overexpression is common in many human cancers, including breast, lung, melanoma, and oral squamous cell carcinoma, where it allows cancer cells to proliferate independently of normal growth signals. Disruption of this gene's normal regulation is therefore frequently linked to cancer development and progression.
This variant
CCND1 is an established oncogene whose amplification or overexpression drives many cancers, so individual missense changes are interpreted cautiously. This p.(Asp282Asn) change, absent from population databases and lacking any reported functional or clinical evidence, is classified as a VUS — current data neither support nor exclude a role in cancer.

Classification rationale
PM2BP4VUS
CCND1 c.844G>Amissense · exon 5
PM2 (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0 population databases. BP4 (Supporting): REVEL 0.07 and SpliceAI max delta 0.001 predict no functional impact. PM2 and BP4 (both supporting), combined under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules, do not meet any pathogenic or benign threshold, yielding a VUS classification.

PM2supportingPathogenic
Met (supporting): the variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0 population databases.
gnomAD v2.1 reports the variant as absent.gnomAD v4.1 reports the variant as absent.gnomAD-Canada v1.0 reports the variant as absent.
Met (supporting): REVEL 0.07 is below the 0.29 benign-supporting threshold, indicating no predicted functional impact.
SpliceAI (source_registry 'spliceai') max delta score = 0.001 for NM_053056.3:c.844G>A across DS_AG/DS_AL/DS_DG/DS_DL, indicating no predicted splice disruption.REVEL score = 0.07 (source_registry 'revel'), below the ClinGen SVI-calibrated REVEL benign-supporting thresholds described in Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997).BayesDel score -0.503138 was retrieved (source_registry 'bayesdel') but excluded from this determination because no verified, citable published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline.
OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. CCND1, a regulator of the cell cycle, is amplified in various cancer types including breast, head and neck, and bladder cancers.
