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.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.033088237 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.9, offset of 25, new splice context is: agctctcaatgttgaaacAGaaa. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 22-28710060-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-28710060-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 801161.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The variant disrupts a canonical splice site, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. The variant found in general population data with a frequency that is consistent with pathogenicity. Predicted to negatively affect a known splice site. Nucleotide conservation is uninformative. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.793-1G>T pathogenic intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 6 of the CHEK2 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
