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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1756 of the ATM protein (p.Thr1756Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ATM-related conditions (PMID: 19781682, 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186974). 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%. Studies have shown that this missense change 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. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Identified in patients with breast cancer, in an individual with Lynch-syndrome associated cancer and/or polyps, and in unaffected controls (Tavtigian et al., 2009; Tung et al., 2015; Yurgelun et al., 2015; Decker et al., 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19781682, 25980754, 28779002, 25186627, 26787654, 26689913) -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces threonine with arginine at codon 1756 of the ATM protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. In a large international case-control study, this variant was reported in 4/60462 breast cancer cases and 3/53458 controls (PMID: 33471991). In a separate breast cancer case-control study, this variant was reported in a healthy control (PMID: 19781682). This variant was also observed in an individual affected with early onset breast cancer (Color Health internal data) and in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or colorectal polyps who also had a PMS2 variant (PMID: 25980754) that is reported as disease-causing in ClinVar (variation ID: 9245). This variant has not been identified 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. -

The p.T1756R variant (also known as c.5267C>G), located in coding exon 34 of the ATM gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 5267. The threonine at codon 1756 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in 0/4112 breast cancer patients and 1/2399 healthy control individuals across numerous studies (Tavtigian S et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2009 Oct;85:427-46). This alteration was also detected on a 25-gene panel test in a woman of Western/Northern European ancestry who was diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). This alteration was reported in a study of 1297 cases of early-onset breast cancer and 1121 controls (Young EL et al. J Med Genet, 2016 06;53:366-76). Additionally, this alteration has been reported in at least one subject in a study of 13087 breast cancer cases and 5488 control individuals in the UK (Decker B et al. J Med Genet, 2017 11;54:732-741). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2

Division of Medical Genetics, University of Washington

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has been reported in the literature in individuals with breast cancer (Tavtigian 2009, Yurgelun 2015). This variant is not present in population databases (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico analyses indicate this is an evolutionarily conserved residue. Thus, it is unknown at this time whether this variant increases cancer risk. PM2; PP3 -

The ATM p.Thr1756Arg variant was identified in 1 of 7582 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0001) from individuals or families with breast cancer or Lynch Syndrome associated cancer and/or colorectal polyps, and was identified in 1 of 4490 chromosomes from healthy individuals (frequency: (0.00)) (Yurgelun 2015,Tavtigian 2009). In the LS proband, the variant co-occurred with a PMS2 variant (c.137G>T (p.Ser46Ile)), while in the control case that had no personal family history of breast cancer at the time of recruitment, the variant was found to co-occur with another ATM variant (p.W488C) (Yurgelun 2015, Tavtigian 2009). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs786203369) “With Uncertain significance allele”, and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics and Invitae). The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The p.Thr1756Arg residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
