Ambry Genetics | RCV000562747 | SCV000666351 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-02-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.I160L variant (also known as c.478A>C), located in coding exon 3 of the CHEK2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 478. The isoleucine at codon 160 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000562747 | SCV001352891 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-04-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces isoleucine with leucine at codon 160 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 not been reported in individuals affected with CHEK2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. |
Invitae | RCV001340655 | SCV001534478 | uncertain significance | Familial cancer of breast | 2023-10-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 160 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Ile160Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHEK2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 481709). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The leucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
