About CHEK2

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.
01The reasoning

How it was classified

The recorded framework is ClinGen CHEK2 VCEP v1.0.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.

Recorded applied criteria

The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.

Pathogenic evidence criteria: 2 Benign evidence criteria: 1
Pathogenic criteria applied · 2
PM1Moderate
PM1 · moderate

The variant alters residue Ile251 in the CHEK2 kinase domain (residues ~220–500), a well-established critical functional domain essential for CHEK2 kinase activity and DNA damage signaling. Missense substitutions in the kinase domain have been shown to abolish CHEK2 function.

PM2Supporting
PM2 · supporting

The variant is present at an extremely low frequency in population databases: gnomAD v2.1 AF=0.00177% (5/282,756 alleles), gnomAD v4.1 AF=0.00328% (53/1,613,926 alleles), and absent from gnomAD-Canada. These frequencies are well below the PM2 threshold of 0.1%.

Benign criteria applied · 1
BS4Supporting
BS4 · supporting

In the familial prostate cancer family reported by Dong et al. (PMID:12533788), the c.751A>T variant was detected in only 1 of 2 affected brothers, demonstrating lack of segregation with disease. This represents a non-segregation event in affected family members supporting a benign interpretation.

Recorded classification: Uncertain significance

Hereditary Breast, Ovarian and Pancreatic Cancer Specification v1.0.0 lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: PM1 moderate, PM2 supporting, BS4 supporting benign; combination = 1 moderate + 1 supporting + 1 supporting benign, which maps to VUS.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

PM1 (moderate) is met: the variant alters Ile251 in the CHEK2 kinase domain, a well-established critical functional domain.

PM2 (supporting) is met: the variant is present at extremely low frequency in population databases (gnomAD v2.1 AF=0.00177%, gnomAD v4.1 AF=0.00328%).

BS4 (supporting benign) is met: the variant demonstrated lack of segregation in a familial prostate cancer family, where it was detected in only 1 of 2 affected brothers.

The variant has been observed in individual cases of familial prostate cancer (1/298) and hereditary breast cancer (1/507) but has not demonstrated statistically significant case-control enrichment.

No variant-specific functional studies have been performed for p.Ile251Phe. In silico predictions are mixed: REVEL=0.426, BayesDel=0.178, PolyPhen-2=Probably damaging, SIFT=Tolerated.

ClinVar classification is Uncertain significance (15 VUS, 3 Likely pathogenic submissions). No expert panel review has been performed.

With one moderate pathogenic criterion (PM1), one supporting pathogenic criterion (PM2), and one supporting benign criterion (BS4), the evidence is equivocal and the variant remains a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS).

This variant is present in gnomAD-Canada v1.0 (AF= 0.00016286644951140066, 3/18420 alleles, homozygotes = 0).

ClinVar

This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (15 clinical laboratories) and as Likely pathogenic (2 clinical laboratories) and as likely pathogenic (1 clinical laboratory). (ClinVarID = 128086)

In silico

SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.00). REVEL score = 0.426. BayesDel score = 0.177609.

Functional

OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. CHEK2, an intracellular kinase involved in control of the cell cycle, is altered in various cancer types.

Somatic

This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot. This variant has not previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC).
