Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PM5_SupportingPVS1PM2_SupportingPM3_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The ATM c.1442T>G (p.Leu481Ter) variant is expected to produce an NMD-prone transcript due to a nonsense or frameshifting event (PVS1). In the absence of potential splicing rescue mechanisms in ATM, all PVS1-eligble truncating variants are expected to be pathogenic based on the existence of known pathogenic C-terminal truncations in the last exon (PM5_Supporting). This variant has been observed in a compound heterozygous state (confirmed) in one individual with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (PMID 21665257: PM3_Strong). This variant is absent in GnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the HBOP Variant Curation Expert Panel.

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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PM3, PM5_Supporting c.1442T>G, located in exon 10 of the ATM gene, is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation before codon 481, p.(Leu481*). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation and nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (PVS1, PM5_Supporting). It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1, non cancer dataset (PM2_supporting). This variant has been observed in a compound heterozygous state in one Ataxia-Telangiectasia patient (PMID 21665257)(PM3).To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. In addition, it has been reported in ClinVar database (7x pathogenic, 1x likely pathogenic) and in the LOVD database (2x pathogenic). Based on currently available information, the variant c.1442T>G is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ClinGen-ATM Guidelines version v1.1. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.L481* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1442T>G), located in coding exon 9 of the ATM gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 1442. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. In one study, an individual with ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) was found to be compound heterozygous for this mutation and another frameshift alteration in ATM (Micol R et al. J Allergy Clin Immunol, 2011 Aug;128:382-9.e1). This mutation has also been reported in an individual with metastatic prostate cancer (Castro E et al. J Clin Oncol, 2019 02;37:490-503). 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. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the ATM gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in individuals affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 21665257). This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with metastatic prostate cancer (PMID: 30625039) or renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 35441217). 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 Pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu481*) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 21665257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 453367). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
