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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

c.5975A>C located in exon 40 of the ATM gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of lysine by threonine at codon 1992, p.(Lys1992Thr).This variant is found in 16/35060 at a filter allele frequency of 0.029% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database (Latino non-cancer data set). The SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing and the REVEL meta-predictor score for this variant (0.256) is indeterminate regarding the effect that it may have on protein function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. In addition, the variant was also identified in the ClinVar database (10x uncertain significance, 12x likely benign, 5x benign) and in LOVD database (3x uncertain significance, 2x likely benign, 2x not classified). Based on currently available information, the variant c.5975A>C is classified as an uncertain significance variant according to ClinGen-ATM Guidelines version v1.1. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The ATM c.5975A>C (p.Lys1992Thr) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.43% in gnomAD v2.1.1. The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function, and to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer, prostate cancer, and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PMID: 28767289, 30303537, 32601921, 33436325). In addition, four individuals with this variant is reported in a database of women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES, https://whi.color.com/). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

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). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: ATM c.5975A>C (p.Lys1992Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the PIK-related kinase domain (IPR014009) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00036 in 254000 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00046 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including at least 1 homozygote (2 homozygous individuals in gnomAD v4). The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.84 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Prostate Cancer phenotype (0.00025) and is also reported at a frequency of 0.0044 within the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in the gnomAD database (which is approximately equal to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Ataxia-Telangiectasia, 0.004), suggesting that the variant might be a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Ashkenazi Jewish origin. It has further been reported in at least 4 individuals over the age of 70 years who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database). c.5975A>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer phenotypes including breast cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, without strong evidence for causality (examples-Castillo-Guardiola_2022, Gervas_2022, Dorling_2021, Bernstein_2010, Skowronska_2011, Navrkalova_2013, Young_2016, Zhang_2015, Tung_2014, Shindo_2017, Tiao_2017, Girard_2019, Tsaousis_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Ataxia-Telangiectasia. 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: 17968022, 20305132, 35245693, 33471991, 35763645, 30303537, 35264596, 26689913, 23585524, 28767289, 21933854, 28652578, 31159747, 25186627, 26787654, 26580448). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17968022, 20305132, 35245693, 33471991, 35763645, 30303537, 35264596, 26689913, 23585524, 28767289, 21933854, 28652578, 31159747, 25186627, 26787654, 26580448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127415). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This variant has been reported in the literature in numerous individuals with various types of cancer including breast, prostate and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (Shindo 2017 PMID:28767289, Girard 2019 PMID:30303537, Tsaousis 2019 PMID:31159747, Gerbas 2020 PMID:32601921, Karlsson 2021 PMID:33436325). This variant is present in the Genome Aggregation Database (Highest reported MAF 0.4% (45/10364) including 1 homozygote https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-108183194-A-C?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). This variant is present in ClinVar, with classifications ranging from Variant of Uncertain Significance to Benign (Variation ID:127415). Evolutionary conservation suggests that this variant may impact the protein; computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

The ATM p.Lys1992Thr variant was identified in 1 of 636 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from British individuals or families with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and was present in 1 of 562 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from healthy individuals (Skowronska 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs150757822) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Invitae and Ambry Genetics) and Clinvitae (2X). The variant was not identified in GeneInsight-COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, and ATM-LOVD databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 92 (1 homozygous) of 277014 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0003 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Lys1992 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of 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. -
