Gene Variant Descriptions | CHEK2 E239K lies within the protein kinase domain of the Chek2 protein (UniProt.org). E239K results in Kap1 phosphorylation and Chek2 autophosphorylation similar to wild-type Chek2 in culture (PMID: 37449874) and Chek2 expression similar to wild-type in culture in one study (PMID: 31780696), but confers a loss of function to Chek2 as demonstrated by reduced Chek2-mediated DNA damage repair in yeast (PMID: 22419737), and decreased Chek2 protein expression and phosphorylation in cultured cells (PMID: 33606978), and decreased kinase activity in an in vitro assay (PMID: 31780696). |
