Abstract

Protein-truncating variants in the breast cancer susceptibility gene CHEK2 are associated with a moderately increased risk of breast cancer. By contrast, for missense variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in CHEK2 the associated breast cancer risk is often unclear. To facilitate their classification, functional assays that determine the impact of missense VUS on CHK2 protein function have been performed. Here we discuss these functional analyses that consistently reveal an association between impaired protein function and increased breast cancer risk. Overall, these findings suggest that damaging CHEK2 missense VUS are associated with a risk of breast cancer similar to that of protein-truncating variants. This indicates the urgency of expanding the functional characterization of CHEK2 missense VUS to further understand the associated cancer risk.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
