CHEK2 and hereditary cancer: For this purpose, many different gene panels consisting of different number and/or set of genes are available and we are particularly interested in a panel of 26 genes with a varying degree of hereditary cancer risk consisting of ABRAXAS1, ATM, BARD1, BLM, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDH1, CHEK2, EPCAM, MEN1, MLH1, MRE11, MSH2, MSH6, MUTYH, NBN, PALB2, PMS2, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51C, RAD51D, STK11, TP53, and XRCC2. In this study, we have compiled a collection of the missense variations reported in any of these 26 genes.
