Description

The p.S57F variant (also known as c.170C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the CHEK2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 170. The serine at codon 57 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was detected in conjunction with a pathogenic RAD51C mutation in an individual with early-onset breast cancer (Schoolmeester JK et al. Hum. Pathol., 2017 12;70:14-26). This alteration was also detected in an individual diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (Cremin C et al. Cancer Med, 2020 06;9:4004-4013). This alteration behaved as functional in an in vivo, yeast-based growth rate assay (Delimitsou A et al. Hum Mutat, 2019 05;40:631-648). This alteration was also 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 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 phenylalanine at codon 57 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). A functional study in yeast has shown this variant to be benign (PMID: 30851065). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer, who also carried a pathogenic RAD51C variant (PMID: 28709830). This variant has been identified in 1/251454 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.
