Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26837699, 25503501, 26689913, 28779002, 28188106, 27304073, 25042771, 28652578, 30613976, 33436325, 34371384, 35039564, 32522261, 35365198, 30253992, 23532176, 36568162, 33471991, 36446039, 35171259, 37262986) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
The p.T2853M variant (also known as c.8558C>T), located in coding exon 57 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 8558. The threonine at codon 2853 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in a cohort of 13087 breast cancer cases from the UK (Decker B et al. J. Med. Genet. 2017 Nov;54:732-741). This variant was also identified in 1 of 1009 Chinese patients with a personal history of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (Yin L et al. JAMA Netw Open, 2022 Feb;5:e2148721). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 2853 of the ATM protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 28779002, 33471991, 35039564), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 34371384), or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 26837699), as well as in unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991, 35365198). This variant has been identified in 15/282472 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. -

not specified Uncertain:2
Variant summary: ATM c.8558C>T (p.Thr2853Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the phosphatidylinositol 3-/4-kinase, catalytic domain (IPR000403) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251092 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer (5.2e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.8558C>T has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing among individuals with breast cancer (e.g. Rizzolo_2019, Dorling_2021, Eygelaar_2022, van der Merwe_2022), early-onset prostate cancer (Trendowski_2022), and other types of cancer (e.g. Nadeu_2016, Yin_2022). However, it has also been reported in unaffected control individuals (e.g. Dorling_2021, Renault_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with breast cancer or prostate cancer. 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: 33471991, 35039564, 25042771, 26837699, 35365198, 30613976, 35171259, 36568162, 36446039, 37262986). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Uncertain:2

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2853 of the ATM protein (p.Thr2853Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs141534716, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and/or prostate cancer (PMID: 26689913, 26837699, 30613976, 33436325, 34371384, 35171259). This missense change has been observed on the opposite chromosome (in trans) from a pathogenic variant in ATM in an individual who was not affected with recessive ATM-related conditions (internal data). This suggests that this variant may not be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142249). 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 expected to disrupt ATM protein function with a positive 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. -

This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. -

ATM-related disorder Uncertain:1
The ATM c.8558C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr2853Met. This variant has been reported in individuals with a history of breast cancer (Table S5, Decker et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28779002; Dorling et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991; Table 2, Eygelaar et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35039564), pancreatic cancer (Bono et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34371384), or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (Table S8, Nadeu et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26837699); but has also been reported in control individuals (Dorling et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991). Of note, a different missense variant at this same position (p.Thr2853Arg) has been reported in a patient with breast cancer (Supplementary Table 1, Maxwell et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25503501). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is listed in ClinVar by multiple laboratories as uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142249/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
The ATM p.Thr2853Met variant was identified in 1 of 796 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (Nadeu 2015). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs141534716) as "With Uncertain significance allele" and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and two other submitters). The variant was not identified in LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in control databases in 17 of 276798 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00006 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 3 of 24026 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), Latino in 1 of 34376 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), European in 9 of 126386 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007), East Asian in 2 of 18860 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), Finnish in 1 of 25776 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), and South Asian in 1 of 30778 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), while the variant was not observed in the Other or Ashkenazi Jewish populations. The p.Thr2853 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms and 5 of 5 computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume 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. -
