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]

C11orf65 (HGNC:28519): (chromosome 11 open reading frame 65) Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of mitochondrial fission and negative regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion. Predicted to be located in cytosol and mitochondrial outer membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.018209573 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 11-108326227-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-108326227-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 246299.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	May 19, 2020	This variant causes a T to C nucleotide substitution at the +2 position of intron 47 of the ATM gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although functional studies have not been reported for this variant, it is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID 25480502). This variant has not been identified 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 Likely Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jun 20, 2018	The c.6975+2T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 46 in the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This BDGP splice prediction software does not produce a reliable prediction for the nearby native splice donor site. This ESEfinder splice prediction software predicts that this alteration will abolish the native splice donor site. 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. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 47 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 246299). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -

This variant is denoted ATM c.6975+2T>C or IVS47+2T>C and consists of a T>C nucleotide substitution at the +2 position of intron 47 of the ATM gene. This variant destroys a canonical splice donor site and is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing. Although the predicted impact of this variant is an in-frame deletion of a single exon, it is significant in that it leads to a loss of 55 amino acids within the FAT domain (Stracker 2013). ATM c.6975+2T>C has been reported in an individual with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (Sutton 2015). Based on currently available information, we consider ATM c.6975+2T>C to be a likely pathogenic variant. -

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. -
