Genes affected
CHEK2 (HGNC:16627): (checkpoint kinase 2) In response to DNA damage and replication blocks, cell cycle progression is halted through the control of critical cell cycle regulators. The protein encoded by this gene is a cell cycle checkpoint regulator and putative tumor suppressor. It contains a forkhead-associated protein interaction domain essential for activation in response to DNA damage and is rapidly phosphorylated in response to replication blocks and DNA damage. When activated, the encoded protein is known to inhibit CDC25C phosphatase, preventing entry into mitosis, and has been shown to stabilize the tumor suppressor protein p53, leading to cell cycle arrest in G1. In addition, this protein interacts with and phosphorylates BRCA1, allowing BRCA1 to restore survival after DNA damage. Mutations in this gene have been linked with Li-Fraumeni syndrome, a highly penetrant familial cancer phenotype usually associated with inherited mutations in TP53. Also, mutations in this gene are thought to confer a predisposition to sarcomas, breast cancer, and brain tumors. This nuclear protein is a member of the CDS1 subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 30, 2016Variant summary: The CHEK2 c.1265G>A (p.Ser422Asn) variant located in the Protein kinase-like domain (via InterPro) causes a missense change involving a conserved nucleotide with 3/4 in silico tools (SNPs&GO not captured here due to low reliability) predict a "damaging" outcome, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 1/115744 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000086, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CHEK2 variant (0.0000284). In addition, a clinical diagnostic laboratory cites the variant as "uncertain significance." The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 02, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Identified in patients with breast cancer but also in controls (Decker et al., 2017; Girard et al., 2019; Dorling et al., 2021); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30303537, 28779002, 22419737, 19782031, 33471991) -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 22, 2023This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 422 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Ser422Asn). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and likely results in the loss of 12 and gain of 1 amino acid residue(s), but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs549755590, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, renal cancer (PMID: 30303537). This variant is also known as p.Ser465Asn. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182436). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Studies have shown that this missense change results in the activation of a cryptic splice site in exon 12 (Invitae). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMay 11, 2022This missense variant replaces serine with asparagine at codon 422 of the CHEK2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer in the literature, but has also been observed in control individuals (PMID: 28779002, 30287823, 30303537, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 2/250340 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 18, 2024The p.S422N variant (also known as c.1265G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1265. The serine at codon 422 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in at least one breast cancer patient in a study of 13087 breast cancer cases and 5488 control individuals in the UK (Decker B et al. J Med Genet. 2017 11;54:732-741). This alteration was also identified in 1/1207 cases of French women diagnosed with breast cancer who had a sister with breast cancer and were BRCA1 and BRCA2 negative and 0/1199 general population controls (Girard E et al. Int J Cancer 2019 04;144:1962-1974). Another study reported the alteration in 4/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 1/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
CHEK2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 01, 2024The CHEK2 c.1265G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser422Asn. This variant has been reported in patients with breast cancer and renal cell carcinoma (Table S3, Girard et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30303537; Table S1B, Yngvadottir et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35441217). This variant is reported in 0.0029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/182436/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
