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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 8.4, offset of 50, new splice context is: cgcGTgagt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-108229324-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-108229324-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 487450.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Counsyl	Dec 21, 2016	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 20, 2023	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 of the ATM gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 31921190). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 487450). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 4 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 17, 2022	Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Canonical splice site variant in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in an individual with pancreatic cancer (Hutchings et al., 2019); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31285527, 31921190) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Mar 15, 2023	This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the canonical +1 position of intron 4 of the ATM gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although functional studies have not been reported for this variant, it is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in the compound heterozygous state in an individual affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 31921190). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, cervical cancer and parathyroid cancer (PMID: 35078243). 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 Likely Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 19, 2022	The c.331+1G>A pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 3 of the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Another mutation at this donor site, c.331+5G>A, results in the same abnormal splicing event and has been reported in multiple individuals with a clinical diagnosis of ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) (Nakamura K, et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Jan; 33(1):198-208, Morio T, et al. Int. J. Hematol. 2009 Nov; 90(4):455-62, Verhagen MM et al, Neurology 2009 Aug; 73(6):430-7, Verhagen MM, et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Mar; 33(3):561-71). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Jan 09, 2024	This variant is considered likely 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. -
