Variant summary: ATM c.9079dupA (p.Ser3027LysfsX36) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251460 control chromosomes. c.9079dupA has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ataxia-Telangiectasia and related conditions (example, Coutinho_2004, Demuth_2011, Feliubadal_2021). Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
This sequence change results in a frameshift in the ATM gene (p.Ser3027Lysfs*36). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 30 amino acid(s) of the ATM protein and extend the protein by 5 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs587780645, gnomAD 0.003%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with ATM-related conditions (PMID: 15039971, 21965147, 26270727). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as 9080insA, c.9080dupA, and c.9078_9079insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135788). This variant disrupts a region of the ATM protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg3047*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8755918, 19431188, 19691550). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:3

This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in the incorporation of abnormal amino acid sequence into the protein product and abnormal protein elongation. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 15039971, 21965147]. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
The c.9079dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 62 of the ATM gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 9079, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S3027Kfs*36). This pathogenic mutation has been reported in the literature in a compound heterozygous state with a splice site mutation in a Brazilian patient with classical ataxia telangiectasia (Coutinho G et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A 2004 Apr;126A(1):33-40). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this frameshift occurs near the 3' terminus of ATM and results in the elongation of the protein by 6 amino acids. This mutation alters the sequence of the FATC domain of the ATM protein which has been shown to be necessary for ATM regulation (Jiang XJ et al. Biol. Chem. 2006 Jun;281(23):15741-6). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 63 of the ATM gene, creating a frameshift in the last coding exon and extending the length of the ATM protein by 5 amino acids. This variant is expected to alter the FATC domain and disrupt the ATM protein function (PMID: 16603769). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a second ATM mutation in individuals affected with ataxia telangiectasia (PMID: 15039971, 21965147). This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer or hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26270727, 28135145). This variant has been identified in 1/251460 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of ATM function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
The c.9079dup (p.Ser3027Lysfs*36) variant duplicates one nucleotide in the last exon of ATM. It is predicted to create a frame shift and result in an extension of the protein, not triggering nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The frame shift after residue 3027 alters the FATC domain, critical for ATM activation as its interaction with the Tip60 histone acetyltransferase allows ATM acetylation and then autophosphorylation (PVS1_Strong, according to the PVS1 algorithm recommended by ACMG/AMP in 2018; PMID: 30192042). This variant appears only once in the gnomAD v2.1.1 non-cancer dataset, specifically in the African subpopulation (PM2; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Moreover, it was detected in two ataxia-telangiectasia probands (PS4_Moderate; PMID: 15039971, 21965147). Therefore, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic. Adapted ACMG/AMP rules applied as defined by the Spanish ATM working group: PVS1_Strong + PM2 + PS4_Moderate (PMID: 33280026). -
