Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000781304 SCV000919224 likely pathogenic Familial cancer of breast 2018-08-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CHEK2 c.1279_1280insC (p.Phe427SerfsX3) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. p.Glu457fsX33, p.Arg519X). The variant was absent in 118108 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1279_1280insC in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
Invitae RCV000781304 SCV003001480 pathogenic Familial cancer of breast 2023-02-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 633175). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHEK2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe427Serfs*3) in the CHEK2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CHEK2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21876083, 24713400).
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000781304 SCV004045271 pathogenic Familial cancer of breast 2023-06-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV003584743 SCV004361349 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-08-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 12 of the CHEK2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of CHEK2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
