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.

Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-CHEK2, EXON10, c.1023C>T, p.Asn341=, Heterozygous, Likely BenignrnThe CHEK2 p.Asn341= variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs377668478) as "With Likely benign allele" and ClinVar (classified as benign by GeneDx; and as likely benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics or Color). The variant was identified in control databases in 8 of 276922 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 2 of 24024 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), Other in 1 of 6456 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), European in 3 of 126534 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), and South Asian in 2 of 30774 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007); it was not observed in the Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or Finnish populations. The p.Asn341= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. 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.rnAssessment Date: 2019/07/22 -
