Description

CCNA1 (Cyclin A1) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a member of the cyclin family, specifically cyclin A1. Cyclin A1 is involved in the regulation of the cell cycle, primarily during the S phase and G2/M transition. It binds to and activates cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and cell division cycle 2 (CDC2) kinases. Expression of CCNA1 is predominantly in the testis and in certain hematopoietic cells, and it is frequently dysregulated in various cancers, including acute myeloid leukemia and testicular germ cell tumors.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Acute Myeloid Leukemia Overexpression of CCNA1 contributes to leukemogenesis by promoting cell cycle progression and genomic instability. PubMed: 10655551, COSMIC
Testicular Germ Cell Tumor CCNA1 is highly expressed in testicular germ cell tumors, suggesting a role in tumor proliferation. PubMed: 11159946, COSMIC
Breast Cancer Altered CCNA1 expression is associated with poor prognosis and tumor progression. PubMed: 21750110, COSMIC

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.123C>T (p.Arg41Cys) Missense 0.02% Unknown functional effect
c.456_457insA (p.Gln153Thrfs*12) Frameshift 0.01% Loss of function
c.789G>A (p.Trp263*) Nonsense 0.01% Loss of function
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift and nonsense mutations in CCNA1 are predicted to result in truncated or absent protein, leading to loss of cyclin A1 function and impaired cell cycle regulation.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations have been reported in CCNA1.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations have been reported in CCNA1.

Pathways

Cell Cycle (KEGG: hsa04110)

Cellular Senescence (KEGG: hsa04218)

Protein Summary

Cyclin A1 is a 465-amino acid protein with a molecular weight of approximately 52 kDa. It contains a cyclin box domain that mediates binding to CDK2 and CDC2. The protein is predominantly nuclear and regulates cell cycle progression. Cyclin A1 is essential for spermatogenesis and is also implicated in the development of certain cancers, particularly acute myeloid leukemia and testicular germ cell tumors.
