Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:6
Variant summary: The ATM c.1339C>T (p.Arg447X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent ATM protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g.c.3049C>T/p.Gln1017X, c.4396C>T/p.Arg1466X). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/121264 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000082, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic ATM variant (0.0039528). This variant has been reported as germline variant in mutliple Ataxia-Telangiectasia patients in autosomal recessive inheritance and patients with ovarian cancer, chronic lymphocyti leukemia or prostate cancer in autosomal dominant inheritance. It also has been reported in at least one patient with aggressive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma as a somatic variant. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg447*) in the ATM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872). This variant is present in population databases (rs587779815, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia and ovarian and prostate cancer (PMID: 8845835, 15164409, 23612382, 24789685, 26681312, 27433846). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127337). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Stop-gained (nonsense) is predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000127337 / PMID: 8845835). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the ATM gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in individuals affected with autosomal recessive ataxia-telangiectasia, with several individuals confirmed to be homozygotes or compound heterozygotes with a second pathogenic variant in trans (PMID: 8845835, 15164409, 23612382, 24789685, 25037873), indicating that this variant contributes to disease. This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and/or underwent hereditary cancer multigene panel testing (PMID: 28779002, 24763289, 26681312, 27433846, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 2/251290 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of ATM function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
The p.R447* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1339C>T), located in coding exon 9 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1339. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This mutation has been reported in several individuals with classic ataxia-telangiectasia including three Druze families, suggesting it is a founder mutation in the Druze population (Gilad S et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 1996 Apr;5:433-9; Fares F et al. Prenat. Diagn. 2004 May;24:358-62). It has also been reported in individuals with breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer (Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med., 2016 08;18:823-32; Pritchard CC et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2016 Aug;375:443-53; Decker B et al. J. Med. Genet., 2017 Nov;54:732-741). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome;C3469522:Breast cancer, susceptibility to Pathogenic:1
The c.1339C>T (p.Arg447*) variant in the ATM gene is predicted to introduce a premature translation termination codon, which is predicted to result in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has an extremely low frequency in large databases of genetic variation in the general population. Mono-allelic variants in the ATM gene have been associated with susceptibility to breast cancer (MIM #114480) whereas bi-allelic variants in this gene are associated with Ataxia-telangiectasia (MIM #208900). This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 8845835, 15164409) and in patients affected with cancer (PMID: 26681312, 27433846). Therefore, the c.1339C>T (p.Arg447*) variant in the ATM gene is classified as pathogenic.
