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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This nonsense mutation is categorized as deleterious according to ACMG guidelines (PMID:18414213). It was found twice in our laboratory in trans with a deleterious frameshift mutation in a set of affected siblings. 9-year-old female & 12-year-old male sibs had cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, intellectual disability, hypertonia, spasticity, peripheral neuropathy, pigmentary skin changes. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1579*) in the ATM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. 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). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and ataxia telangiectasia (PMID: 25037873, 26845104). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224518). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 31 of the ATM gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26845104) and in the compound heterozygous state with a second ATM mutation in an individual affected with ataxia telangiectasia (PMID: 25037873). 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. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q1579* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4735C>T), located in coding exon 30 of the ATM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4735. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 30. This mutation has been reported in an individual with ataxia-telangiectasia, who also carried a second ATM mutation (Hoche F et al. Pediatr. Neurol. 2014 Sep;51:297-310). It was also identified in a patient with a personal history of breast cancer and a family history of ovarian cancer (Shirts BH et al. Genet. Med. 2016 Oct;18:974-81). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is denoted ATM c.4735C>T at the cDNA level and p.Gln1579Ter (Q1579X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Glutamine to a premature stop codon (CAA>TAA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a second ATM pathogenic variant in at least one individual with ataxia telangiectasia (R?be 2010, Hoche 2014), and in a woman with breast cancer and a family history of ovarian cancer (Shirts 2016). We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -
