Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:2
Variant summary: ATM c.6573-2A>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. One predict the variant creates a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 248902 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, c.6573-2A>G has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ataxia-Telangiectasia and 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: 25614872, 29922827, 26098866, 31206626). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 453636). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with ATM-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs751168951, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 45 of the ATM gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872).
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2
This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.6573-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 45 in the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic.
