Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_007194.4(CHEK2):c.1201A>G(p.Thr401Ala) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000062 in 1,613,718 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T401S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Mar 09, 2023 | This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Jan 10, 2024 | This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 401 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Thr401Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908704, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and breast cancer (PMID: 26506619, 30851065). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126908). 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. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on CHEK2 function (PMID: 30851065). 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. - |
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 02, 2023 | The p.T401A variant (also known as c.1201A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the CHEK2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1201. The threonine at codon 401 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration behaved as semi-functional in an in vivo, yeast-based growth rate assay (Delimitsou A et al. Hum Mutat, 2019 05;40:631-648). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Nov 12, 2021 | This missense variant replaces threonine with alanine at codon 401 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). A functional study has shown this variant to result in partial loss of CHEK2 function (PMID: 30851065). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (PMID: 26506619). This variant has been identified in 4/250994 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. - |
