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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSpanish ATM Cancer Susceptibility Variant Interpretation Working GroupJun 17, 2020The intronic c.496+4T>C variant is not predicted to lead to a splicing alteration as per SPiCE predictor and no splicing site is created/activated according to at least 3 splicing predictors of the set SpliceSiteFinderlike - MaxEntScan - NNSplice - GeneSplicer (BP4). Splicing analysis in carrier RNA with proper design and controls showed only the wild-type transcript although do not demonstrate biallelic expression by an exonic SNV (BS3_Supporting; O.Díez, unpublished data). This variant has an allele frequency of 0.000082 (0.008%, 22/268,180 alleles) in the gnomAD v2.1.1 non-cancer dataset, with a maximal frequency of 0.00019 (0.02%, 22/118,056 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) subpopulation (no population frequency criterion met; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Therefore, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign. Adapted ACMG/AMP rules applied as defined by the Spanish ATM working group: BP4 + BS3_Supporting (PMID: 33280026). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 05, 2024Variant summary: ATM c.496+4T>C alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 251312 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer (8.8e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.496+4T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer (Jalkh_2017, Mitchell_2018), without strong evidence for causality. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with disease. The variant was also reported in 2/7325 European American women, who were older than age 70, and have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database). 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: 28202063, 29659587, 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140926). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 23, 2014This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoSep 14, 2023In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMIDs: 28202063 (2017), 28779002 (2017), 29659587 (2018)) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 33280026 (2021)). Additionally, this variant has been observed in elderly cancer free women (Flossies, (https://whi.color.com/)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00018 (23/129072 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant does not affect ATM mRNA splicing. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The ATM c.496+4T>C variant was identified in 4 of 2610 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with breast cancer and Lynch Syndrome (Jalkh 2017,Yurgelun 2015, ). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs587781375) as “with uncertain significance allele” and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Counsyl, Integrated Genetics and 4 other submitters, benign by GeneDx and likely benign by Color). The variant was not identified in LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in control databases in 23 of 282,719 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European in 23 of 129,072 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), but was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, Other and South Asian populations. The variant was reported in an individual with a co-occurring pathogenic STK11 variant (c.375-1C>T) (Jalkh 2017). The c.496+4T>C variant is located in the 5' splice region but does not affect the invariant +1 and +2 positions. However, positions +3 to +6 are part of the splicing consensus sequence and variants involving these positions sometimes affect splicing. 4 out of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) 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 although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
Familial cancer of breast Benign:1

This variant is intronic and is not expected to impact mRNA splicing. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. -
