CHEK2 and cancer: Most children had predisposition variants in genes previously implicated in Wilms tumor: most prominently WT1 (n = 35) and less frequently TRIM28, REST, DIS3L2, CTR9, DICER1, CDC73, and NONO. Nine children carried germline mutations in cancer predisposition genes not considered Wilms tumor predisposition genes, such as CHEK2, CDKN2A, BLM, BRCA2, STK11, and FMN2.
