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.

This variant is present in population databases (rs200928781, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer, colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, and/or uterine sarcoma (PMID: 22114986, 25503501, 27553368, 27751358, 30441849, 30613976, 32957588, 33919281, 33925588, 35220195; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.1298A>C, p.Tyr433Ser. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141818). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CHEK2 function (PMID: 22114986, 30851065, 34903604). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMay 04, 2023This missense variant replaces tyrosine with serine at codon 390 of the CHEK2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant was damaging in kinase assays in mouse embryonic stem cells and in vitro (PMID: 22114986, 34903604) and in a yeast DNA damage repair assay (PMID: 30851065). This variant has been reported in at least six individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 22114986, 25503501, 33919281, 33925588, 34072659; DOI:10.14744/ejmo.2022.88057) and in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 3/60463 cases and 3/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID CHEK2_000348). This variant also has been reported in one individual each affected with ovarian, pancreatic and Mullerian sarcoma in the uterus (PMID: 29922827, 30441849, 32957588). This variant has been identified in 6/251046 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 01, 2023The p.Y390S variant (also known as c.1169A>C), located in coding exon 10 of the CHEK2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1169. The tyrosine at codon 390 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration is located in the kinase domain of the CHK2 protein. Based on an in vitro kinase activity test combined with in silico models, this alteration had been associated with no detectable kinase activity and was interpreted as probably deleterious (Desrichard A et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2011;13(6):R119). This alteration also behaved as non-functional in an in vivo, yeast-based growth rate assay (Delimitsou A et al. Hum. Mutat., 2019 May;40:631-648) and was reported as damaging in an mES cell-based assay of CHEK2 activity (Boonen RACM et al. Cancer Res, 2022 02;82:615-631). This alteration has been reported in multiple patients undergoing multi-gene panel testing, including individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Leedom TP et al. Cancer Genet. 2016 Sep;209(9):403-407; Pinto P et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2016 Sep;159(2):245-56; Hauke J et al. Cancer Med, 2018 04;7:1349-1358; Koczkowska M et al. Cancers (Basel), 2018 Nov;10; Solano AR et al. Cancers (Basel), 2021 May;13; Apostolou P et al. Cancers (Basel), 2021 Apr;13:). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJan 30, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer or ovarian cancer, and in individuals at increased risk for cancer based on family history (PMIDs: 22114986 (2011), 27553368 (2016), 27751358 (2016), 30441849 (2018), 32957588 (2020), 33919281 (2021), and 33925588 (2021)). In addition, experimental studies indicate this variant is damaging to CHEK2 protein function (PMIDs: 34903604 (2021), 30851065 (2019), 22114986 (2011), 20713355 (2010)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 01, 2023Variant summary: CHEK2 c.1169A>C (p.Tyr390Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change to a highly conserved residue (HGMD) located in the Protein kinase domain (IPR000719) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 252072 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1169A>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome or Prostate Cancer (e.g. Maxwell_2014, Koczkowska_2018, Apostolou_2021, Kirchner_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. In functional assays (in vitro kinase activity assay and yeast based functional assay), the variant of interest was found to have activity similar to the negative control and the well-characterized 1100delC mutation (Desrichard_2011, Delimitsou_2019). In a mouse embryonic stem cell-based system, the variant protein showed a similar extent of impairment of Kap1 phosphorylation as truncating variants (Boonen_2022). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25503501, 27553368, 22114986, 27751358, 29922827, 30851065, 30441849, 32183364, 33925588, 32090079, 36360192, 35643632). 11 submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified it as pathogenic/likely pathogenic (n=10) or uncertain significance (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The CHEK2 p.Tyr390Ser variant was identified in 6 of 93488 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.00006) from individuals or families with breast cancer and was not identified in 1026 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Desrichard 2011, Leedom 2016, Maxwell 2015, Pinto 2016). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs200928781) as "With Likely pathogenic, Uncertain significance allele" and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae and Counsyl; as likely pathogenic by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and Color). The variant was identified in control databases in 6 of 245894 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the European population in 6 of 111380 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005); it was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The variant was found disrupt CHEK2 kinase activity through an in vitro kinase activity assay (Desrichard 2011). The p.Tyr390 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
