Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PS3 PM2 PM4_Supporting PP3

The NM_007194.4(CHEK2):​c.885_887delAGA​(p.Glu295del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000657 in 152,214 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000289714: Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 8, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data).". Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E295E) 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.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000289714: Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 8, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_007194.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
