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]

The c.3993+3A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 3 nucleotides after coding exon 25 in the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive and direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). 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 sequence change falls in intron 26 of the ATM gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ATM protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs771789242, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 420827). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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

This variant is denoted ATM c.3993+3A>G or IVS26+3A>G and consists of a A>G nucleotide substitution at the +3 position of intron 26 of the ATM gene. Multiple in silico models predict this variant to destroy the nearby natural donor site and to possibly cause abnormal gene splicing; however, in the absence of RNA or functional studies, the actual effect of this variant is unknown. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. ATM c.3993+3A>G was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The adenine (A) nucleotide that is altered is not conserved across species. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether ATM c.3993+3A>G is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
