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 ATM c.5497-2A>C intronic change results from a A to C substitution at the -2 position of intron 36 of the ATM gene. RNA studies have shown that this variant causes abnormal splicing which results in frameshift and premature protein truncation (PMID: 10330348, internal data). This variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and is not reported in a database of women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database, https://whi.color.com/). This variant has been observed in the heterozygous state in an individual with ataxia-telangiectasia, however a second variant was not identified (PMID: 10330348). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic. -

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

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 36 of the ATM gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. 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: 10330348). This variant is also known as IVS38-2A>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449345). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 10330348, 31843900; internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Canonical splice site variant demonstrated to result in a null allele through the use of cryptic splice site leading to premature stop codon in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease (Teraoka et al., 1999; Casadei et al., 2019); Observed in individuals with early onset breast cancer and other cancers (Renault et al., 2018; Casadei et al., 2019); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as IVS38-2A>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 34687117, 26837699, 25525159, 30303537, 31843900, 10330348, 29665859) -

The ATM c.5497-2A>C variant disrupts a canonical splice-acceptor site and interferes with normal ATM mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 32125938 (2020)) and ataxia-telangiectasia (PMIDs: 21665257 (2011), 14695534 (2004), 10330348 (1999)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000066 (1/152164 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

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

The c.5497-2A>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 36 in the ATM gene. This mutation (designated as IVS38-2A>C) was reported in an individual diagnosed with ataxia-telangiectasia (Teraoka et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1999 Jun;64(6):1617-31). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Teraoka et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1999 Jun;64(6):1617-31; Casadei S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2019 Dec; Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

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

This variant (also known as IVS38-2A>C in the literature) causes an A to C nucleotide substitution at the -2 position of intron 36 of the ATM gene. RNA studies have shown that this variant causes the deletion of the first 61 nucleotides of exon 37 in the RNA transcript, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal (PMID: 10330348, 14695534, 31843900). The aberrant RNA transcript is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state or compound heterozygous state with an additional pathogenic ATM variant in individuals affected with ataxia telangiectasia (PMID: 10330348, 14695534, 21665257). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32125938). This variant has not been identified 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 Pathogenic. -
