Submissions by phenotype
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 8 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Glu8Asp). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The aspartic acid amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 231544). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHEK2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs780920036, gnomAD 0.01%). -

not provided Uncertain:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.E8D variant (also known as c.24G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 24. The glutamic acid at codon 8 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was reported as functional in a study assessing CHEK2-complementation through quantification of KAP1 phosphorylation and CHK2 autophosphorylation in human RPE1-CHEK2-knockout cells (Stolarova L et al. Clin Cancer Res, 2023 Aug;29:3037-3050). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
