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 c.1139_1140delTC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1139 to 1140, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L380Hfs*14). This alteration was reported in a 42 year-old woman with a personal history of breast and ovarian cancer and a family history of breast cancer (Escudie P et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2010 Feb;120:267-70). This alteration has also been identified in a cohort of high-risk breast/ovarian cancer patients (Cast&eacute;ra L et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2014 Nov;22:1305-13) and in at least one subject 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). Of note, this alteration is also known as c.1140_1141delTC in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
