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, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jun 25, 2015	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The CHEK2 p.Asp497= variant was identified in 1 of 236 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.004) from Chinese individuals or families with familial breast cancer (Liu_2011_21618645). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs762041905) “With Likely benign allele”, ClinVar (classified likely benign by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx, Invitae), Clinvitae (3x), and in control databases in 2 of 229076 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000009 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include East Asian in 2 of 16922 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), while not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European Non-Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The variant was not identified in Cosmic, MutDB, and Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The p.Asp497= 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. In addition, 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. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
