Functional Summary
The ATM E2818* variant is a truncating mutation in a tumor suppressor gene, likely resulting in loss of function. Functional studies indicate that truncating mutations in ATM can lead to decreased DNA repair efficiency and increased cellular motility, supporting a damaging effect. This variant has been associated with oncogenic potential in various cancers.

VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Very Strong)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: "Very Strong Strength: Very Strong Use ATM PVS1 Decision Tree Modification Type: Gene-specific,Strength". The evidence for this variant shows a truncating (nonsense) change (E2818*) not located in the last exon, predicted to cause loss of function in ATM. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because the variant is a null variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: "Strong Strength: Strong Use for protein changes as long as splicing is ruled-out for both alterations...". The evidence for this variant shows no identical amino acid change previously reported as pathogenic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: "De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history". There are no data on de novo occurrence or parental testing for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rules for PS3 are: "Strong: Do not use as strong; Moderate: Use when a variant fails to rescue both an ATM-specific feature AND radiosensitivity; Supporting: Use when a variant fails to rescue an ATM-specific feature only". The available functional studies do not include ATM-specific rescue assays or radiosensitivity rescue data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: "The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with controls (case-control data)". There are no case-control or statistical association data reported for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: "Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical functional domain without benign variation". There is no information on a critical functional domain or mutational hotspot for residue E2818 in ATM. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: "Supporting Strength: Supporting Frequency ≤.001% if n=1 in a single sub population...". The evidence for this variant shows absence from population databases (gnomAD MAF=0%). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the variant is absent from controls.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "Use ATM PM3/BP2 table for recessive disorders". There are no reports of this variant in trans with a pathogenic ATM variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4
PM4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: "Protein length changes due to in-frame deletions/insertions or stop-loss variants". This variant is a nonsense change, not an in-frame indel or stop-loss. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: "Supporting Strength: Supporting Use for genomic frameshift and truncating variants with PTC upstream of p.R3047". The evidence for this variant shows a premature termination codon at E2818, which is upstream of p.R3047. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because it is a truncating variant upstream of the specified residue.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: "Assumed de novo, without confirmation of paternity and maternity". There are no data on de novo occurrence for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: "Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease". No segregation data are available for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP2
PP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP2 is: "Missense variant in a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation". This variant is a nonsense change, not a missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: "Supporting Strength: REVEL >.7333 or splicing impact by in silico predictors". Computational predictions for this variant are mixed and do not meet VCEP thresholds. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP4
PP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: "Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology". No phenotype or family history data are provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP5
PP5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: "Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic without accessible evidence". There are no such reports. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: "Allele frequency is >5% in general population". This variant is absent from population databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: "Allele frequency is greater than expected for disorder". This variant is absent from population databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS2
BS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: "Observed in healthy adult individuals for a recessive disorder". No healthy adult observations are reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS3
BS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS3 is: "Moderate: Use when a variant rescues both an ATM-specific feature AND radiosensitivity; Supporting: rescues one feature". There are no rescue assay data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4
BS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: "Lack of segregation in affected members of a family". No segregation data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP1
BP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: "Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants cause disease". This variant is truncating, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: "Use ATM PM3/BP2 table for recessive disorders". There is no evidence of this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3
BP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: "In-frame deletions/insertions in repetitive regions". This variant is a nonsense change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP4
BP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: "Supporting Strength: REVEL ≤.249 or splicing predictions without impact". Computational predictions are mixed and below thresholds. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP5
BP5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP5 is: "Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease". No such data are present. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP6
BP6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP6 is: "Reputable source reports variant as benign without evidence". There are no such reports. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP7
BP7 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: "Synonymous variant without impact on splicing". This variant is nonsense, not synonymous. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
