Description

Published functional studies are inconclusive: partial to no impact on response to DNA damage and growth rate, expression levels similar to wild type, and phosphorylation of Thr68 when irradiated similar to wild type (Roeb et al., 2012; Delimitsou et al., 2019; Wagener et al., 2022); Observed in individuals with breast cancer (Dufault et al., 2004; Mohamad et al., 2015; Tsai et al., 2019; Akcay et al., 2020; da Costa e Silva Carvalho et al., 2020; Moradian et al., 2021; Andrikopoulou et al., 2022; Zografos et al., 2022); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as c.609A>G or p.Ile203Met; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22419737, 15095295, 25629968, 28553140, 30303537, 32546565, 27153395, 30851065, 31159747, 31296309, 30374176, 32039725, 32900738, 33558524, 32658311, 33471991, 35127508, 28779002, 35772246, 36468172, 25186627, 19782031, 36011273)

Description

The CHEK2 p.Ile160Met variant was identified in 4 of 2906 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from German and Malaysian individuals or families with BRCA1/2 negative HBOC or breast cancer and was identified in 1 of 1540 control chromosomes (freq: 0.001) from healthy individuals (Dufault 2004, Mohamad 2015). Functional analyses using a yeast based assay to assess in vivo CHEK2 mediated response to DNA damage showed the variant had a partial response to DNA damage (Roeb 2012). In this study, the variant co-occurred with CHEK2 p.G167R which was found to have no response to DNA damage; further, segregation studies showed the p.Ile160Met was carried by the affected father diagnosed with breast cancer and his elderly unaffected sister. The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs575910805) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity; submitters: uncertain significance by GeneDx and Ambry Genetics, and likely benign by Invitae), Clinvitae (3x), Cosmic (1x in a Ewings sarcoma tumour), and was not identified in MutDB or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 31 of 277194 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001 increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency variant in certain populations of origin (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). Observations by population include, European Non-Finnish in 7 of 126678 chromosomes (freq. 0.00006) and South Asian in 24 of 30782 chromosomes (freq. 0.0008); it was not seen in the East Asian, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, and European Finnish populations. The p.Ile160 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact of Met to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. 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.
