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.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 23, 2017Variant summary: The CHEK2 c.907T>C (p.Leu303Leu) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant does not affect ESE sites at the locus. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in the large control database ExAC in 13 of 29770 control chromosomes (1 homozygote), but was observed exclusively in the South Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.001524 (13/8528; 1 homozygote). This frequency is about 54 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CHEK2 variant (0.0000284), strongly suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of South Asian origin. Although this site has been successfully tested in a reduced number of control individuals in ExAC, the large control database gnomAD supports this finding with a larger number of samples tested (22/196838 control chromosomes [1 homozygote]; South Asian frequency of 21/26240 [1 homozygote]). In addition, two clinical diagnostic laboratories have classified this variant as likely benign. To our knowledge, the variant of interest has not been reported in affected individuals via publications, nor has it been evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -
