Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Uncertain:5
- -
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 2691 of the ATM protein (p.Arg2691Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs531980488, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer or prostate cancer (PMID: 12935922, 15756685, 19781682, 20305132, 26689913, 29522266, 31248605, 31871109). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133636). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ATM protein function. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 2691 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: 12935922, 15756685, 19781682, 31871109, 33471991), colorectal cancer (PMID: 28135145), and thyroid cancer (PMID: 26530882). In a large international case-control meta-analysis, this variant was reported in 13/60466 breast cancer cases and 9/53461 controls (OR=1.277, 95%CI 0.546 to 2.988, p-value=0.671; PMID: 33471991). In a separate meta-analysis of breast cancer case-control studies, this variant has shown inconclusive association with disease (PMID: 19781682). This variant has also been identified in 34/251216 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. -
The p.R2691C variant (also known as c.8071C>T), located in coding exon 54 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 8071. The arginine at codon 2691 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals diagnosed with breast cancer (Sommer SS et al. Cancer Genet Cytogenet, 2003 Sep;145:115-20; Heikkinen K et al. Int J Cancer, 2005 Aug;116:69-72; Bernstein JL et al. J Natl Cancer Inst, 2010 Apr;102:475-83; Xie Y et al. Clin Genet, 2018 Jan;93:41-51; Adedokun B et al. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev, 2020 02;29:359-367). It has also been reported in an individual with non-medullary thyroid cancer (Yu Y et al. Sci Rep, 2015 Nov;5:16129). This amino acid position is not well 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. -

Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2
The c.8071C>T variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer [PMID: 12935922, 20305132, 19781682 ] and also in individuals with no history of cancer [PMID: 24728327, 19781682]. The c.8071C>T variant has an allele frequency of 0.0001353 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tools evaluating evolutionary conservation and impact on protein structure and function suggest that this variant may have a deleterious effect; however, there are no functional studies to verify or refute these predictions. At this time, it is unknown at this time whether or not this variant increases cancer risk; therefore, we interpret it as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Variant summary: ATM c.8071C>T (p.Arg2691Cys) 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 0.00014 in 258358 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer (0.00014 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.8071C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer, ovarian cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, thyroid cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer (Kwong_2020, Li_2020, Adedokun_2019, Wei_2019, Hauke_2018, Xie_2018, Yurgelun_2017, Lu_2015, Yu_2015, Guarini_2012, Bernstein_2010, Tavtigian_2009, Heikkinen_2005, Sommer_2003). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer. One co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported internally (PALB2 c.1451T>A, p.Leu484X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eleven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
