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]

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 960 of the ATM protein (p.Pro960His). This variant is present in population databases (rs587779828, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ATM-related conditions (PMID: 30287823, 35264596, 36243179). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 221187). 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%. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.P960H variant (also known as c.2879C>A), located in coding exon 18 of the ATM gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2879. The proline at codon 960 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in unselected breast cancer patients, unselected colorectal cancer patients, as well as unaffected controls in case control studies in Japanese populations (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083; Fujita M et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol, 2022 Sep;20:2132-2141.e9; Guindalini RSC et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Mar;12:4190). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces proline with histidine at codon 960 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer and in unaffected individuals in a case-control study in Japanese population (PMID: 30287823). This variant has been identified in 3/251428 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. -

Variant summary: ATM c.2879C>A (p.Pro960His) 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 0.00016 in 726040 control chromosomes, predominantly in the East Asian cohort within the gnomAD database, where the variant is underrepresented and in a case control association study of breast cancer in individuals of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa_2018). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Ataxia-Telangiectasia (0.00016 vs 0.004), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2879C>A has been reported in Japanese population databases (example, HGVD Kyoto and JMorp) and in the literature in Japanese individuals affected with Breast Cancer as well as in male and female controls (Momozawa_2018, Okawa_2023) with a reported clinical significance as benign. It has also been reported as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing in individuals with Breast Cancer (example, Guindalini_2022). To our knowledge, c.2879C>A has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ataxia-Telangiectasia. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Ataxia-Telangiectasia/Breast Cancer. 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: 35264596, 30287823, 36243179). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 221187). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
