Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:7
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1618*) 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 (rs762083530, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and ataxia telangiectasia (PMID: 9872980, 15843990, 19404735). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187207). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: ATM c.4852C>T (p.Arg1618X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251340 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.4852C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (Babaei_2005, Hacia_1998, Micol_2011) and in at least one individual affected with breast cancer (Paglia_2010). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function using a cell line derived from a patient (who carried the variant of interest and another variant) demonstrated decreased phosphorylation of ATM target proteins, defective cell cycle checkpoint control following exposure to Camptothecin (CPT) and severely decreased ATM protein expression (Fievet_2019). Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
The observed stop gained c.4852C>T(p.Arg1618Ter) variant in ATM gene has been reported in compound heterozygous or homozygous state in individuals affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (Hacia JG, et.al., 1998; Babaei M, et. al.,2005). Experimental evidence demonstrated decreased phosphorylation of ATM target proteins, defective cell cycle checkpoint control following exposure to Camptothecin (CPT) and severely decreased ATM protein expression (Fiévet A, et. al., 2019). This variant is present with an allele frequency of 0.0004% in gnomAD Exomes database. This variant has been submitted to ClinVar as pathogenic (multiple submissions). Computational evidence (MutationTaster - disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this varian. The nucleotide change c.4852C>T in ATM is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing (Podralska MJ, et. al., 2014). 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%). This homozygous variant was 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: VCV000187207 / PMID: 9872980). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:4
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
The p.R1618* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4852C>T) located in coding exon 31 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4852. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 31. This alteration has been described in multiple individuals with ataxia-telangiectasia (Hacia JG et al. Genome Res. 1998 Dec;8(12):1245-58; Babaei M et al. Hum. Genet. 2005 Jul;117:101-6; Micol R et al. J Allergy Clin Immunol, 2011 Aug;128:382-9.e1). This alteration has also been reported in individuals with breast, colorectal, pancreatic and prostate cancers (Paglia LL et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2010 Jan;119:443-52; Hampel H et al. JAMA Oncol, 2018 06;4:806-813; Kondo T et al. Oncotarget, 2018 Apr;9:19817-19825; Gong R et al. Cancer Manag Res, 2019 Apr;11:3721-3739; Nguyen-Dumont T et al. Int J Cancer, 2020 10;147:2142-2149). 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.
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 32/63 of the ATM gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. An in vitro study showed that this variant disrupted cellular function (PMID: 31050087). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 19404735), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 29731985), and ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 9872980, 15843990, 21665257). This variant has been identified in 1/251340 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 c.4852C>T (p.Arg1618*) variant generates a stop codon that is predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein, due to nonsense mediated decay (NMD) (PVS1). It appears only once in the gnomAD v2.1.1 non-cancer dataset, specifically in the South Asian subpopulation (PM2; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). ). This variant has been reported in three ataxia-telangiectasia probands in homozygosis or heterozygosis (PS4_Moderate; PMID: 9872980, 15843990). Therefore, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic. Adapted ACMG/AMP rules applied as defined by the Spanish ATM working group: PVS1 + PM2 + PS4_Moderate (PMID: 33280026).

ATM-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The ATM c.4852C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1618*). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous and homozygous states in multiple individuals with autosomal recessive ataxia telangiectasia (Hacia et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9872980; Babaei et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15843990; Micol et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21665257, Table E1). It has also been reported in an individual with breast cancer and a family history of breast and hematological malignancy (Paglia et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 19404735), and as a somatic change in a colorectal tumor specimen (Hampel et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29596542, eWorksheet). This variant is reported in 1 of ~251,000 alleles in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/187207/). Nonsense variants in ATM are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
