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]

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. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 05, 2024Variant summary: ATM c.4424A>G (p.Tyr1475Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 0.00098 in 1614758 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0012 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD (v4.0.0) database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer phenotype (0.001), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. In addition, this variant has been reported in 16/7325 European American women, who are older than age 70 and cancer free (in the FLOSSIES database). Multiple publications cite the variant in sequencing studies of affected individuals with varying tumor phenotypes, including breast-, pancreatic- and prostate cancer, lymphoma and Lynch Syndrome, although with limited information (i.e. lack of co-occurrence and cosegregation data). These reports therefore do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer/Ataxia-Telangiectasia. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (MSH2 c.1861C>T, p.Arg621X, internal testing), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17344846, 23555315, 25980754, 16167060, 19781682, 17640065, 20305132, 17333338, 16832357, 16914028, 12697903, 25479140, 12935922, 25862857, 26787654, 26898890, 26976419, 23369113, 27978560, 28652578, 27782108). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127392). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoDec 30, 2020DNA sequence analysis of the ATM gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.4424A>G, in exon 29 that results in an amino acid change, p.Tyr1475Cys. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.1% in the Finnish sub-population (dbSNP rs34640941). The p.Tyr1475Cys change has been identified in a female with breast cancer (PMID: 26976419) and in an individual with colon cancer (PMID: 27978560). The p.Tyr1475Cys change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the ATM protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Tyr1475Cys substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Tyr1475Cys change remains unknown at this time. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMay 04, 2017The p.Tyr1475Cys variant (rs34640941) has not been reported association with ataxia telangiectasia in the medical literature or gene specific variation databases but has been reported to ClinVar (Variation ID: 127392). However, the p.Tyr1475Cys variant has been identified in numerous cancer sequencing cohorts in both case and controls (Fang 2003, Meier 2005, Sipahimalani 2007, Sommer 2003, Tavtigian 2009, Tommiska 2006 and Yurgelun 2015). In a large meta-analysis of breast cancer studies, Tavtigian et al. identified the p.Tyr1475Cys variant in 1/4112 breast cancer cases and 6/2399 controls. Based on these observations the p.Tyr1475Cys variant is likely to be benign. -

Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingDivision of Medical Genetics, University of WashingtonJan 03, 2019This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (Tung 2016, Tommiska 2006), as well as control populations (Hirsch 2008, Sommer 2003). The c.4424A>G variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.0006 in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In silico analyses indicate this is an evolutionarily conserved residue. Thus, it is unknown at this time whether this variant increases cancer risk. -

Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoMar 30, 2021ATM NM_000051.3 exon 29 p.Tyr1475Cys (c.4424A>G): This variant has been reported in the literature as germline in at least 6 individuals with various types of cancer (breast, colon, lymphoma) (Sipahimalani 2007 PMID:17640065, Tavtigian 2009 PMID:19781682, Yurgelun 2015 PMID:19781682, Tung 2016 PMID:26976419, Pearlman 2017 PMID:27978560). However, this variant has also been identified in controls (Tavtigian 2009 PMID:19781682) and is present in 0.1% (26/25072) of Finnish alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-108160516-A-G?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:127392). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The ATM p.Tyr1475Cys variant was identified in 4 of 1802 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from African-American, American, Finnish, Dutch and German individuals or families with breast cancer (unselected for history) or childhood acute lymphocytic leukemia; and was present in 1 of 856 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from healthy individuals (Hirsch 2008, Tung 2016, Tommiska 2006, Meier 2005). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs34640941) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity, sumbitters: uncertain significance by GeneDx; likely benign by Invitae and Ambry Genetics), Clinvitae (3x), Cosmic (1x in a diffuse large b cell lymphoma) and was not identified in the COGR, MutDB, LOVD 3.0 or ATM-LOVD databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 152 of 276060 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0006 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). It was identified in the following populations: African in 5 of 23840 chromosomes (frequency: 0002), Other in 4 of 6426 chromosomes (frequency: 0006), Latino in 10 of 34336 chromosomes (frequency: 0003), European Non-Finnish in 109 of 126152 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009), and European Finnish in 24 of 25740 chromosomes (frequency: 005). The p.Tyr1475 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 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. 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. -
