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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.017010141 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 9.2, offset of 11, new splice context is: tttctttcgaccttcttcAGgaa. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-108310158-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-108310158-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 232005.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:1

Dec 22, 2023

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 38 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 present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 21665257). This variant is also known as IVS38-2A>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232005). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Myriad Genetics, Inc.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered 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. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 21665257, 25122203, 26896183, 32383811]. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.5763-2A>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides before coding exon 38 in the ATM gene. This intronic splicing mutation has been reported in a French family with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) along with a second ATM pathogenic mutation. Another family with A-T was also reported to carry a similar variant at the same position that leads to the same splicing impact, ATM c.5763-2A>T, along with a second ATM pathogenic mutation (Micol R et al. J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2011 Aug;128:382-9.e1). This allele was reported in one heterozygous individual in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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 a disease-causing mutation. -
