Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000855627	SCV000694275	likely benign	not specified	2023-07-17	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: ATM c.4324T>C (p.Tyr1442His) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00032 in 255904 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ATM causing Breast Cancer (0.00032 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4324T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer. However, a recent case-control study showed that this variant had higher allele frequency in controls than in cases (Dorling_2021), suggesting this variant is benign. Nineteen submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=16) and benign/likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Division of Medical Genetics, University of Washington	RCV001257491	SCV001434302	uncertain significance	Familial cancer of breast	2020-04-09	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant has been reported in the literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Broecks 2008, Tavtigian 2009, Knappskog 2012, Lu 2015, Maxell 2016, Tung 2016). This variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.0003 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico analyses indicate this is an evolutionarily conserved residue. Thus, it is unknown at this time whether this variant increases cancer risk. PP3

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago	RCV000855627	SCV002068619	uncertain significance	not specified	2020-02-17	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	DNA sequence analysis of the ATM gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.4324T>C, in exon 29 that results in an amino acid change, p.Tyr1442His. The p.Tyr1442His change has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 19781682, 27153395, 17393301, 22420423, 26976419, 26689913), as well as in a case-control study for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 28652578). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.061% in European populations (dbSNP rs201666889). The p.Tyr1442His change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the ATM protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Tyr1442His substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Tyr1442His change remains unknown at this time.

Five of seven in silico tools predict a deleterious effect of this variant on protein function (PP3), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 17393301, 17623063, 19781682, 20346647, 22420423, 25186627, 26976419, 28779002, 29522266, 30303537, 31882575, 32885271, 34445631), Ewing sarcoma (PMID: 33332384), high grade glioma (PMID: 26580448), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29338072, 30166531), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 24172824, 28652578). Other studies have observed this variant in relatively equal numbers of cases and controls (PMID: 19781682, 28652578, 30303537). In addition, four individuals with this variant are reported in a database of women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database, https://whi.color.com/variant/11-108160416-T-C). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PP3.

The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function, and to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 17393301, 17623063, 19781682, 20346647, 22420423, 25186627, 26976419, 28779002, 29522266, 30303537, 31882575, 32885271, 34445631), Ewing sarcoma (PMID: 33332384), high grade glioma (PMID: 26580448), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29338072, 30166531), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 24172824, 28652578).

In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences	RCV004549551	SCV000805559	uncertain significance	ATM-related disorder	2024-03-26	no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The ATM c.4324T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr1442His. This variant has been reported in patients with a personal or family history of breast or ovarian cancer as well as patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, but has also been reported in control individuals from the same studies (Table S2, Tavtigian et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19781682; Broeks et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17393301; Table S3, Girard et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30303537; Knappskog et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22420423; Table S5, Maxwell et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27153395; Table S6, Tiao et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28652578). This variant is reported in 0.061% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar of uncertain, likely benign, and benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/127385/). While we suspect this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	RCV001355810	SCV001550802	uncertain significance	Malignant tumor of breast		no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The ATM p.Tyr1442His variant was identified in 7 of 11034 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with breast cancer, and was not identified in 4798 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Broeks 2008, Knappskog 2012, Maxwell 2016, Tavtigian 2009, Tung 2016). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs201666889) as With Uncertain significance allele, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Invitae, Color Genomics and two clinical laboratories; classified as benign by Ambry Genetics), and LOVD 3.0 (VUS). The variant was not identified in the GeneInsight-COGR, Cosmic, or MutDB databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 82 of 276704 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: Other in 1 of 6442 chromosomes (freq: 0.000155), European Non-Finnish in 76 of 126378 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), European Finnish in 5 of 25776 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002); it was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, and South Asian populations. The p.Tyr1442 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. This variant was observed in one individual from our lab with a co-occurring pathogenic variant in CHEK2, c.1100delC, increasing the likelihood this variant does not have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
