Classification rationale
1

The CHEK2 c.731A>G (p.Lys244Arg) variant has not been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC and has been reported in ClinVar as uncertain significance by 7 clinical laboratories.

2

The variant is present at very low frequency in gnomAD, with AF 1.06e-05 in v2.1 and 9.29e-06 in v4.1, and no homozygotes were observed, which supports rarity.

3

In silico data argue against a deleterious effect, with REVEL 0.062 and SpliceAI predicting no significant splice impact (max delta score 0.00).

OncoKB: Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB has not reviewed this specific variant; no variant-level oncogenicity or biological effect is available. Gene-level context: CHEK2, an intracellular kinase involved in control of the cell cycle, is altered in various cancer types.
