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]

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.Trp2638*) 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 (rs377349459, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia, colon cancer, and/or prostate cancer (PMID: 9711876, 12815592, 15039971, 21965147, 26681312, 27433846). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141233). 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. -

Variant summary: The ATM c.7913G>A (p.Trp2638X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent ATM protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.8264_8268delATAAG, p.Tyr2755fsX12; c.8266A>T, p.Lys2756X; c.8287C>T, p.Arg2763X; c.8977C>T, p.Arg2993X). The variant of interest has been found in ExAC in 1/120514 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic ATM variant (0.0039528). This variant was reported in several patients with Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T) in homozygous state as well as in compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic/ likely pathogenic variants (Sasaki_Hum Mutat_1998, Coutinho_AmJMedGenet_2004, Demuth_Neurogenetics_2011, Nakamura_Mol Genet Genomic Med_2014). Protein expression and ATM-dependent kinase activity assays from patient cells carrying this variant in heterozygous state and compound heterozygous state with another truncating variant are consistent with the predicted outcome (Fernet_BrJC_2004, Nakamura_Mol Genet Genomic Med_2014). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of ATM protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00016 (4/24942 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 31871109 (2019), 28008555 (2017), prostate cancer (PMID: 27433846 (2016), 28008555 (2017)), and colon cancer (PMID: 26681312 (2015)). The variant has been detected in individuals with ataxia-telangiectasia. Those individuals were compound heterozygous for the variant and an ATM pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (PMID: 9711876 (1998), 15039971 (2004), 21965147 (2011)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 53 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 observed in individuals affected with breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, melanoma (PMID: 26681312, 27433846, 28008555, 31871109, 35353237; DOI: 10.21203/rs.3.rs-1065243/v1), and in homozygous and compound heterozygous carriers affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 9711876, 12815592, 15039971, 21965147). Haplotype analyses suggest this variant may be a founder mutation in individuals of African ancestry (PMID: 12815592, 15039971). This variant has been identified in 5/281730 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. -

The p.W2638* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7913G>A), located in coding exon 52 of the ATM gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 7913. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 52. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other ATM variant(s) in individual(s) who met clinical criteria for ataxia-telangiectasia (Sasaki T et al. Hum. Mutat. 1998;12:186-95; Mitui M et al. Hum. Mutat. 2003 Jul;22:43-50; Coutinho G et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A. 2004 Apr;126A:33-40; Demuth I et al. Neurogenetics. 2011 Nov;12:273-82) and has been identified in breast and prostate cancer cohorts (Pritchard CC et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2016 Aug;375:443-53; Adedokun B et al. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev, 2020 02;29:359-367). 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. -

ATM NM_000051 exon 53 p.Trp2638* (c.7913G>A): This variant has been identified as homozygous or compound heterozygous in at least 6 individuals with ataxia telangiectasia (Sasaki 1998 PMID:9711876, Mitui 2003 PMID:12815592, Coutinho 2004 PMID:15039971, Demuth 2011 PMID:21965147). This variant was also identified in at least 2 individuals with colon or prostate cancer (Pritchard 2016 PMID:27433846, Susswein 2016 PMID:26681312). This variant is present in 4/24010 African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs377349459). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (Variation ID:141233). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant creates a premature stop at this codon which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants are a known mechanism of disease for this gene (Huang 2013 PMID:23807571) . In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The ATM c.7913G>A variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Trp2638*). This variant has previously been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in individuals with ataxia telangiectasia (Sasaki et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9711876; Coutinho et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15039971; Demuth et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21965147). This variant has also been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with breast, ovarian, prostate and colorectal cancers (Susswein et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26681312; Pritchard et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27433846; Pritzlaff et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 28008555; Adedokun et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31871109). This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as likely pathogenic or pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/141233/). Nonsense variants in ATM are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
