Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_000051.4(ATM):c.1009C>A(p.Arg337Ser) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,461,588 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R337H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with serine at codon 337 of the ATM protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown the mutant protein to exhibit decreased phosphorylation of downstream targets after ionizing radiation exposure (PMID: 16014569). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been reported as a recurrent mutation in somatic cancer (PMID: 26619011). This variant has been identified in 2/251170 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.R337S variant (also known as c.1009C>A), located in coding exon 7 of the ATM gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1009. The arginine at codon 337 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6499 samples (12998 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.002% (greater than 66000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.R337S remains unclear. -
Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 337 of the ATM protein (p.Arg337Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs138398778, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232238). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt 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. -
