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.

CHEK2-related cancer predisposition Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The CHEK2 c.593-14C>T variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs145754558) as “With Likely benign allele”, ClinVar (as benign by GeneDx, Counsyl), Clinvitae (as benign by ClinVar), databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 752 of 221734 (8 homozygous) chromosomes at a frequency of 0.003 in the following populations: other in 22 of 5482 chromosomes (freq. 0.004), Latino in 1 of 28996 chromosomes (freq. 0.000034), European in 114 of 93630 (1 homozygous) chromosomes (freq. 0.0012), Ashkenazi Jewish in 22 of 9042 chromosomes (freq. 0.0024), East Asian in 128 of 16184 (1 homozygous) chromosomes (freq. 0.008), Finnish in 460 of 22300 (6 homozygous) chromosomes (freq. 0.02),and South Asian in 5 of 25738 chromosomes (freq. 0.0002), increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) 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 although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
