About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for CHEK2: In response to DNA damage and replication blocks, cell cycle progression is halted through the control of critical cellcycle regulators. The protein encoded by this gene is a cell cycle checkpoint regulator and putative tumor suppressor.It contains a forkhead-associated protein interaction domain essential for activation in response to DNA damage and israpidly phosphorylated in response to replication blocks and DNA damage. When activated, the encoded protein is knownto inhibit CDC25C phosphatase, preventing entry into mitosis, and has been shown to stabilize the tumor suppressorprotein p53, leading to cell cycle arrest in G1. In addition, this protein interacts with and phosphorylates BRCA1,allowing BRCA1 to restore survival after DNA damage. Mutations in this gene have been linked with Li-Fraumenisyndrome, a highly penetrant familial cancer phenotype usually associated with inherited mutations in TP53. Also,mutations in this gene are thought to confer a predisposition to sarcomas, breast cancer, and brain tumors. Thisnuclear protein is a member of the CDS1 subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. Several transcript variantsencoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CHK2_HUMAN, O96017Function: Serine/threonine-protein kinase which is required for checkpoint-mediated cell cycle arrest, activation ofDNA repair and apoptosis in response to the presence of DNA double-strand breaks. May also negatively regulate cellcycle progression during unperturbed cell cycles. Following activation, phosphorylates numerous effectorspreferentially at the consensus sequence [L-X-R-X-X-S/T]. Regulates cell cycle checkpoint arrest throughphosphorylation of CDC25A, CDC25B and CDC25C, inhibiting their activity. Inhibition of CDC25 phosphatase activityleads to increased inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation of CDK-cyclin complexes and blocks cell cycle progression. Mayalso phosphorylate NEK6 which is involved in G2/M cell cycle arrest. Regulates DNA repair through phosphorylation ofBRCA2, enhancing the association of RAD51 with chromatin which promotes DNA repair by homologous recombination. Alsostimulates the transcription of genes involved in DNA repair (including BRCA2) through the phosphorylation andactivation of the transcription factor FOXM1. Regulates apoptosis through the phosphorylation of p53/TP53, MDM4 andPML. Phosphorylation of p53/TP53 at 'Ser-20' by CHEK2 may alleviate inhibition by MDM2, leading to accumulation ofactive p53/TP53. Phosphorylation of MDM4 may also reduce degradation of p53/TP53. Also controls the transcription ofpro-apoptotic genes through phosphorylation of the transcription factor E2F1. Tumor suppressor, it may also have a DNAdamage-independent function in mitotic spindle assembly by phosphorylating BRCA1. Its absence may be a cause of thechromosomal instability observed in some cancer cells
summary
for CHEK2: Checkpoint kinases (Chks) are serine/threonine kinases that are involved in the control of the cell cycle. Two subtypes have so far been identified, Chk1 and Chk2. They are essential components to delay cell cycle progression in normal and damaged cells and can act at all three cell cycle checkpoints. Chks are activated by phosphorylation. ATR kinase phosphorylates Chk1 in response to single strand DNA breaks and ATM kinase phosphorylates Chk2 in response to double strand breaks. Chks phosphorylate Cdc25 phosphatase at Ser216, which leads to Cdc25 sequestration in the cytoplasm. Therefore Cdc25 cannot remove the inhibitory phosphorylation on mitotic promoting factor (MPF) and entry into mitosis is prohibited. In addition, Chks have a role in the physiological stress of hypoxia/reoxygenation. Gene Wiki entry for CHEK2

Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated. Phosphorylated at Ser-73 by PLK3 in response to DNA damage, promoting phosphorylation at Thr-68 by ATMand the G2/M transition checkpoint. Phosphorylation at Thr-68 induces homodimerization. Autophosphorylates at Thr-383and Thr-387 in the T-loop/activation segment upon dimerization to become fully active and phosphorylate its substrateslike for instance CDC25C. DNA damage-induced autophosphorylation at Ser-379 induces CUL1-mediated ubiquitination andregulates the pro-apoptotic function. Phosphorylation at Ser-456 also regulates ubiquitination. Phosphorylated by PLK41
Ubiquitinated. CUL1-mediated ubiquitination regulates the pro-apoptotic function. Ubiquitination may also regulateprotein stability. Ubiquitinated by RNF8 via 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination1

Defects in CHEK2 are associated with Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2 (LFS2) [MIM:609265]; a highly penetrant familialcancer phenotype usually associated with inherited mutations in p53/TP53 Defects in CHEK2 may be a cause of susceptibility to prostate cancer (PC) [MIM:176807]. It is a malignancyoriginating in tissues of the prostate. Most prostate cancers are adenocarcinomas that develop in the acini of theprostatic ducts. Other rare histopathologic types of prostate cancer that occur in approximately 5% of patientsinclude small cell carcinoma, mucinous carcinoma, prostatic ductal carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma, squamouscell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma (basaloid), signet-ring cell carcinoma andneuroendocrine carcinoma Defects in CHEK2 are found in some patients with osteogenic sarcoma (OSRC) [MIM:259500] Defects in CHEK2 is a cause of susceptibility to breast cancer (BC) [MIM:114480]. A common malignancyoriginating from breast epithelial tissue. Breast neoplasms can be distinguished by their histologic pattern. Invasiveductal carcinoma is by far the most common type. Breast cancer is etiologically and genetically heterogeneous.Important genetic factors have been indicated by familial occurrence and bilateral involvement. Mutations at more thanone locus can be involved in different families or even in the same case. Note=CHEK2 variants are associated withsusceptibility to breast cancer and contribute to a substantial fraction of familial breast cancer (PubMed:12094328) 20/83 diseases for CHEK2 (see all 83): About MalaCardsli-fraumeni syndrome breast cancer ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder nijmegen breakage syndrome diffuse large b-cell lymphoma human t-cell leukemia virus type 1 sarcoma cervical intraepithelial neoplasia hypoxia b-cell lymphomas ataxia telangiectasia bilateral breast cancer prolymphocytic leukemia non-hodgkin lymphoma squamous cell carcinoma osteosarcoma, somatic breast-ovarian cancer t-cell prolymphocytic leukemia breast cancer susceptibility urinary bladder cancer
