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.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.A230P variant (also known as c.688G>C), located in coding exon 5 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 688. The alanine at codon 230 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in multiple individuals diagnosed with breast cancer (Penkert J et al. Breast Cancer Res, 2018 08;20:87; Hauke J et al. Cancer Med, 2018 Apr;7:1349-1358). This alteration has also been reported in 1/1197 individuals from Greece, Romania, and Turkey undergoing evaluation for inherited cancer predisposition (Tsaousis GN et al. BMC Cancer, 2019 Jun;19:535). This alteration was reported as damaging in an mES cell-based assay of CHEK2 activity (Boonen RACM et al. Cancer Res, 2022 Feb;82:615-631). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 230 of the CHEK2 protein. Computational prediction tool suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown this variant to be damaging to the kinase activity of the CHEK2 protein (PMID: 34903604). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer with personal or family history suggestive of Li-Fraumeni syndrome (PMID: 30086788). This variant has also been identified in 1/251330 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. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 230 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Ala230Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs748636216, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 30086788, 30613976, 31159747). This variant is also known as c.817G>C (p.Ala273Pro). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410020). 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: 34903604). 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. -
