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]

Submissions by phenotype

Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 18, 2023This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 45 of the ATM gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia (PMID: 15880721). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127426). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCounsylApr 13, 2016- -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 17, 2014This pathogenic variant is denoted ATM c.6572+1G>A or IVS45+1G>A and consists of a G>A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 45 of the ATM gene. The variant destroys a canonical splice donor site and is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, leading to either an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay or to an abnormal protein product. This variant, also reported in intron 47 using alternative nomenclature, has been reported in a patient with Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T)who carried a second ATM variant and is considered pathogenic (Birrell 2005). A single variant in the ATM gene has been estimated to increase the relative risk of female breast cancer about 2-fold over the general population (Thompson 2005, Renwick 2006) resulting in a lifetime risk of approximately 25-30%. According to one study, breast cancer risk in women under age 50 who carry one ATM variant is nearly 5 times the age-matched general population risk which translates to approximately a 10% risk (Thompson 2005). This study of 1160 ATM carriers also reported evidence of increased risk for colon cancer. In a recent study of 166 unrelated familial pancreatic cancer patients, 2.4% were identified as carriers of one ATM variant, and in families with 3 or more cases of pancreatic cancer, 4.6% carried an ATM variant (Roberts 2012). Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive condition caused by two mutations (one affecting each allele) in the ATM gene. This multisystem disorder is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, telangiectasias, immunodeficiency, and increased cancer risks. If an ATM variant carrier'spartner is also heterozygous for an ATM variant, the risk to have a child with A-T is 25% with each pregnancy. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 29, 2018The c.6572+1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 44 of the ATM gene. This alteration has been previously identified in one individual with ataxia telangiectasia, however, another ATM mutation was not detected (Birrell GW et al. Hum. Mutat. 2005 Jun; 25(6):593). This alteration was identified in 1/10030 consecutive patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel (Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med., 2016 08;18:823-32). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Jan 30, 2024This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. -
