Description

The p.S53T variant (also known as c.157T>A), located in coding exon 1 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 157. The serine at codon 53 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected by genome sequencing in an ancestrally diverse cohort of 681 healthy individuals (Bodian DL et al. PLoS One. 2014 Apr 11;9(4):e94554). This alteration was seen in 0/732 breast cancer patients, 0/189 colorectal cancer patients and 1/490 cancer-free elderly controls in a Turkish population (Akcay IM et al. Int J Cancer, 2021 01;148:285-295). In another study, this variant was reported in 5/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 3/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med 2021 02;384:428-439). 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(16):3037-3050). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Description

This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 53 of the CHEK2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with ovarian cancer (DOI: 10.26650/experimed.1187969) or breast cancer (PMID: 33471991), but also in control individuals (PMID: 24728327, 32658311, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 12/251418 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
