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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:4

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 27, 2022	This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 1459 of the ATM protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. The variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 17623063, 26976419, 28779002, 33471991), prostate cancer (PMID: 33436325), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29458332), an individual suspected of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754), and in healthy controls (PMID: 19781682, 28779002, 33471991). This variant has also been identified in 16/282612 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	May 27, 2024	The p.G1459R variant (also known as c.4375G>A), located in coding exon 28 of the ATM gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4375. The glycine at codon 1459 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been detected in individuals diagnosed with breast cancer and healthy controls across numerous studies (Tavtigian S et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2009 Oct;85:427-46; Decker B et al. J. Med. Genet. 2017 Nov;54:732-741; Tung N et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2016 May;34:1460-8; Edvardsen H et al. Radiat Oncol. 2007 Jul;2:25). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome

Uncertain:3

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 27, 2025	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1459 of the ATM protein (p.Gly1459Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs145667735, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or prostate cancer (PMID: 17623063, 25980754, 26976419, 29458332, 30374176, 33436325). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127387). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt ATM protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital	Aug 14, 2024	The ATM c.4375G>A (p.Gly1459Arg) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.01% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function, and functional studies have not been performed. This variant has not been reported in individuals with ataxia telangiectasia. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Aug 19, 2024	Variant summary: ATM c.4375G>A (p.Gly1459Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.1e-05 in 256006 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer (5.1e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4375G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing in individuals affected with breast/colorectal/pediatric and other cancers (example, Edvardsen_2007, Tung_2016, Yurgelun_2015, Dominguez-Valentin_2018, Zhang_2015, Tsai_2019) but also in controls (example, Tavtigian_2009, Dorling_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer/Ataxia Telangiectasia. At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA2 variant not specified, Tsai_2019). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29458332, 17623063, 19781682, 30374176, 26976419, 25980754, 26580448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127387). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The ATM c.4375G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly1459Arg. This variant has been documented in individuals with suspected Lynch syndrome (Table S2, Yurgelun et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25980754; Dominguez-Valentin et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29458332), breast cancer (Table A2, Tung et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26976419; Additional File 1, Edvardsen et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17623063), and prostate cancer (Table S4, Karlsson et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33436325). However, Tavtigian et al. has observed this variant only in the control group in a large case-control-based study on breast cancer (Table S2, Tavtigian et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19781682). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-108160467-G-A). In ClinVar, it is classified as a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/127387/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome

Uncertain:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter

clinical testing

Pittsburgh Clinical Genomics Laboratory, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center

Oct 19, 2018

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (G>A) that results in a glycine to arginine amino acid change at residue 1459 in the ATM protein. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar) that has been observed in at least one breast cancer patient (PMID 26976419), two patients being tested for Lynch syndrome (PMID 25980754), a patient with familial colorectal cancer (PMID 29458332), and one healthy control with no cancer (PMID 19781682). This variant is rare in control population datasets (gnomAD database, 16/276984 alleles, .006% overall frequency). A meta-analysis in breast cancer patients did not identify any enrichment of this variant in breast cancer cases versus healthy controls (PMID 19781682). The Gly1459 residue is not located in a known functional domain, and studies assessing the effect of this variant on ATM function are not published in the literature, to our knowledge. However, multiple in silico tools queried predict that this glycine to arginine amino acid change would be damaging. The glycine at this position is highly evolutionarily conserved across mammalian species examined. At this time, there is insufficient evidence to determine if this variant is pathogenic or benign. Therefore, we consider the significance of this variant to be uncertain. -
