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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 13, 2022	This missense variant replaces glycine with cysteine at codon 151 of the CHEK2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has reported the mutant protein to be functional in DNA damage response assay in yeast (PMID: 30851065). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with lung cancer (PMID: 29866652). This variant has been identified in 1/251322 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 submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Feb 21, 2023	The p.G151C variant (also known as c.451G>T), located in coding exon 3 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 451. The glycine at codon 151 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration behaved as functional in an in vivo, yeast-based growth rate assay (Delimitsou A et al. Hum Mutat, 2019 May;40:631-648). This alteration was seen in 1/732 breast cancer patients, 0/189 colorectal cancer patients and 0/490 cancer-free elderly controls in a Turkish population (Akcay IM et al. Int J Cancer, 2021 Jan;148:285-295). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious 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	KCCC/NGS Laboratory, Kuwait Cancer Control Center	Jul 07, 2023	This sequence change replaces glycine with cysteine at codon 151 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Gly151Cys). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a CHEK2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140928) with 4 submissions, all of which describe this variant as of uncertain significance. Pathogenic computational verdict based on 10 pathogenic predictions from BayesDel_addAF, DANN, DEOGEN2, FATHMM-MKL, LIST-S2, M-CAP, MVP, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster and SIFT vs 2 benign predictions from EIGEN and PrimateAI and the glycine residue is highly conserved. In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on CHEK2 function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 05, 2023	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 151 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Gly151Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781377, gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHEK2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140928). 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:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Apr 07, 2023	The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251322 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 32658311 (2021)), as well as in the somatic state in an individual with lung cancer (PMID: 29866652 (2018)). One yeast-based functional assay demonstrated that this variant had a growth rate similar to the positive control, suggesting a non-damaging effect (PMID: 30851065 (2019)). Additional studies are needed to determine the overall impact of this variant on gene and gene product. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Apr 29, 2022	Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate no damaging effect: growth rate comparable to wild-type in a yeast-based assay (Delimitsou 2019); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19782031, 22419737, 30851065) -
