Is CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T) pathogenic?

CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T) is classified Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity in CDKN2A (ClinVar, Conflicting submitters, 4 submitters; last evaluated 2023-09-17). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1679); Very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe); Associated with familial melanoma.

What condition is associated with CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T)?

CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T) is associated with familial melanoma, melanoma-pancreatic cancer syndrome, hereditary neoplastic syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T) in the general population?

CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T) is very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Familial melanoma inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Multigenic/multifactorial (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about CDKN2A p.Pro11Leu (c.32C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1679) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Finnish shows a higher raw frequency than the grpmax group above it. gnomAD excludes bottlenecked groups — Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, Amish and “Remaining individuals” — from grpmax, because founder effects make their frequencies unrepresentative for filtering. The table is sorted by frequency, so an excluded group can sit above the grpmax row.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
