Genes affected

ATM (HGNC:795): (ATM serine/threonine kinase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. This protein is an important cell cycle checkpoint kinase that phosphorylates; thus, it functions as a regulator of a wide variety of downstream proteins, including tumor suppressor proteins p53 and BRCA1, checkpoint kinase CHK2, checkpoint proteins RAD17 and RAD9, and DNA repair protein NBS1. This protein and the closely related kinase ATR are thought to be master controllers of cell cycle checkpoint signaling pathways that are required for cell response to DNA damage and for genome stability. Mutations in this gene are associated with ataxia telangiectasia, an autosomal recessive disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 23 of the ATM gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ATM protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs786203688, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187380). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (internal data). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes an A to G nucleotide substitution at the +3 position of intron 23 of the ATM gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, RNA studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been identified in 1/250452 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of ATM function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Although there is suspicion that this variant may be associated with disease, additional studies are necessary to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3402+3A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 3 nucleotides after coding exon 22 in the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site; however direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The ATM c.3402+3A>G variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant is predicted to alter splicing based on available splicing prediction programs (Alamut Visual v2.11). However, such computer prediction programs are imperfect. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-108150338-A-G) and is interpreted as uncertain significance by the vast majority of submitters in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/187380/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
