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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 18, 2023The p.I160V variant (also known as c.478A>G), located in coding exon 3 of the CHEK2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 478. The isoleucine at codon 160 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in an individual diagnosed with breast cancer (Megid TBC et al. Front Oncol, 2022 Aug;12:873395). This alteration has also been identified in an individual diagnosed with renal cell cancer (Yngvadottir B et al. Hum Mol Genet, 2022 Aug;31:3001-3011). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 18, 2023This missense variant replaces isoleucine with valine at codon 160 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 (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID CHEK2_000071, 36003761; Color internal data) and in an individual affected with familial breast and thyroid cancer (PMID: 32443704). One of the individuals affected with breast cancer also carried a pathogenic variant in the BRCA2 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 36003761). This variant has been identified in 3/282814 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 testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 04, 2024This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 160 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Ile160Val). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 36003761). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232725). 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 tolerated. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 16, 2017Variant summary: The CHEK2 c.478A>G (p.Ile160Val) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 3/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent from 121352 control chromosomes. In addition, a clinical diagnostic laboratory/reputable database classified this variant as uncertain significance. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. 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. -
