Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 16P and 1B. PVS1 PP5_Very_Strong BS2_Supporting

The NM_001005735.3(CHEK2):​c.1618delG​(p.Asp540IlefsTer16) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000878 in 1,593,714 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. D540D) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PP5: Variant 22-28689187-TC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-28689187-TC-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 185176.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 12 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
