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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Q1503* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4507C>T), located in coding exon 29 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4507. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 29. This alteration has been well described in multiple Ataxia-Telangiectasia families and has been reported as a founder mutation in the Costa Rican population (Mitui M et al, Hum. Mutat. 2003 Jul; 22(1):43-50; Telatar M et al, Mol. Genet. Metab. 1998 May; 64(1):36-4; Termsarasab P et al, Tremor Other Hyperkinet Mov (N Y) 2015 ; 5:298). This alteration was also identified in a female diagnosed with breast cancer (Llach J et al. Cancers (Basel), 2020 Aug;12:). 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. 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 30/63 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 individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32842532, 34204722). This variant has also been reported in the homozygous state and compound heterozygous state with a second pathogenic variant in individuals affected with ataxia-telangiectasia and described as a founder mutation in the Costa Rican population (PMID: 9682216, 12815592, 25793145). This variant has been identified in 2/251314 chromosomes 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1503*) 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 present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 9682216). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 429084). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is denoted ATM c.4507C>T at the cDNA level and p.Gln1503Ter (Q1503X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Glutamine to a premature stop codon (CAG>TAG), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has been reported, in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous state, in at least two individuals with ataxia telengiectasia and has been reported as a Costa Rican founder variant (Rivero-Carmena 2000). We consider this variant to be a likely pathogenic variant. -
