Invitae | RCV000456304 | SCV000550555 | likely pathogenic | Familial cancer of breast | 2022-02-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410064). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with skin cancer (PMID: 32531112). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 12 of the CHEK2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CHEK2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21876083, 24713400). |
Ambry Genetics | RCV000572752 | SCV000664799 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-08-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1376-1G>C intronic variant results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 12 of the CHEK2 gene. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. |

RCV000456304 | SCV004043345 | likely pathogenic | Familial cancer of breast | 2023-06-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. |
