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.

The CHEK2 c.1260-10C>G variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627 (2015)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00026 (13/50354 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on CHEK2 mRNA splicing yielded inconclusive findings. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The CHEK2 c.1260-10C>G variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 6/110696 control chromosomes (1 homozygote) in ExAC and 17/275124 control chromosomes in gnomAD (1 homozygote), predominantly observed in the European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation at frequency of 0.0001 (6/59812 in ExAC) and 0.0001355 (17/125452 in genomAD). These frequency are about 4 ~ 5 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CHEK2 variant (0.0000284), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of European (Non-Finnish) origin. This variant has been reported in one BrC patient without strong evidence for causality. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign/likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -
