Ambry Genetics | RCV000166196 | SCV000216973 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-04-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.7629+2T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 50 in the ATM gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, +2T>C alterations are capable of generating wild-type transcripts in some genomic contexts and should be interpreted with caution (Lin JH et al. Hum Mutat. 2019 10;40:1856-1873). A published RNA study performed on a heterozygous carrier of this variant identified only 24% of the total transcripts as abnormal (Casadei S et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019 Dec). This suggests that there may be some normal splicing associated with this variant. Internal RNA studies have also suggested that this alteration results in an incomplete splice defect; the clinical impact of this abnormal splicing is unknown at this time (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000166196 | SCV000537623 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-06-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant causes a T to C nucleotide substitution at the +2 position of intron 51 of the ATM gene. Splice site tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. This variant was reported in an individual with a personal and family history of cancer (PMID: 31843900). Lymphoblasts derived from this person showed that this variant results in exon 51 skipping (part of the FAT domain), use of a cryptic donor site that causes a 4 base insertion and premature stop codon, as well as full length transcript (PMID: 31843900). This variant has been identified in 1/248366 chromosomes 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 Likely Pathogenic. |

RCV000697479 | SCV000826093 | uncertain significance | Ataxia-telangiectasia syndrome | 2024-01-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 51 of the ATM gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ATM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23807571, 25614872). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203059, gnomAD 0.0009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of cancer (PMID: 31843900, 34262154). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186579). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with altered splicing; however, the splicing effect is incomplete and of unknown impact on protein function (PMID: 31843900, external communication; Invitae). 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. |
