The ATM p.Ser759Gly variant was identified in 3 of 1550 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with breast cancer (Caminsky 2016, Tung 2016). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs148705269) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (6x uncertain significance), and Clinvitae (3x uncertain significance). The variant was not identified in COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, or ATM-LOVD. The variant was identified in control databases in 8 of 276952 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the European population in 8 of 126678 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006), but not in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Ser759 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 3 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with a personal or family history of breast, pancreatic, or other cancers (PMID: 21787400, 26689913, 26898890, 26976419, 28726808, 32885271, 34326862); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21787400, 26976419, 26898890, 28726808, 31422574, 26689913, 32885271, 34994613, 25186627, 36315919, 34326862, 28652578) -
ATM: PM2, BP4 -
Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) Polyphen and MutationTaster predict this amino acid change may be benign. -
Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome    Uncertain:3

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 759 of the ATM protein (p.Ser759Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs148705269, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, low grade glioma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, and/or uterine cancer (PMID: 26689913, 26898890, 26976419, 28652578, 28726808, 34326862, 36315919). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127346). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt ATM protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). 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. -
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:3 
This missense variant replaces serine with glycine at codon 759 of the ATM protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact 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: 25186627, 26689913, 26898890, 26976419), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 28726808), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 28652578). This variant has been identified in 9/282588 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.S759G variant (also known as c.2275A>G), located in coding exon 14 of the ATM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2275. The serine at codon 759 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer cohorts, including in an individual with ovarian cancer and a BRCA1 pathogenic variant (Tung N et al. J Clin Oncol, 2016 May;34:1460-8; Caminsky NG et al. Hum Mutat, 2016 07;37:640-52; Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). This alteration was also reported in 1/302 individuals with both a personal and family history of pancreatic cancer (Chaffee KG et al. Genet Med, 2018 01;20:119-127). This amino acid position is well 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 this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: ATM c.2275A>G (p.Ser759Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251174 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2275A>G has been reported in the literature, often as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing, in individuals affected with breast cancer, prostate cancer and other cancers, without strong evidence (i.e. segregation data) for causality (e.g. Caminsky_2016, Lu_2015, Tung_2016, Bhai_2021, Brady_2022, Lampson_2023, Rezoug_2024). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer or other ATM-related maligancies. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26898890, 21787400, 31422574, 36315919, 26689913, 26976419, 25186627, 35467778, 39226054, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127346). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
