Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM4

The NM_007194.4(CHEK2):c.87_107dupAGGCTCCTCCTCACAGTCCCA(p.Gln36_Gly37insGlySerSerSerGlnSerGln) variant causes a disruptive inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,876 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q36Q) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

This variant, c.87_107dup, results in the insertion of 7 amino acid(s) of the CHEK2 protein (p.Ser31_Gly37dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs762863407, gnomAD 0.006%). 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: 483400). 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. -

The c.87_107dup21 variant (also known as p.S31_G37dup), located in coding exon 1 of the CHEK2 gene, results from an in-frame duplication of 21 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 87 to 107. This results in the duplication of 7 extra residues (SSSQSQG) between codons 31 and 37. This duplication is located in the SQ/TQ cluster domain of the CHEK2 gene (Matsuoka S, et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2000 Sep; 97(19):10389-94). This amino acid region is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
