PVS1
PVS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Use ATM PVS1 Decision Tree'. The evidence for this variant shows: it is a deep intronic variant at c.8988-27C>G not affecting canonical ±1 or ±2 splice sites. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant does not meet any PVS1 categories in the ATM decision tree.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: 'Use for protein changes as long as splicing is ruled-out for both alterations. Use ATM PS1 Splicing table for splicing variants with similar predictions or observations of splice defect.' The evidence for this variant shows: there is no amino acid change and no match to a known pathogenic amino acid substitution. 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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo segregation data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: 'Use ATM PS3 Decision Tree: Moderate when a variant fails to rescue both an ATM-specific feature and radiosensitivity, Supporting when it fails to rescue an ATM-specific feature only.' The evidence for this variant shows: no functional characterization in ATM-specific assays is available. 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 to controls (case-control data).' The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control or large cohort data are available. 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 and well-established functional domain without benign variation.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a deep intronic variant outside known functional domains. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2_supporting is: 'Frequency ≤0.001% if n=1 in a single subpopulation; n>1 in one or multiple subpopulations would not be considered rare and PM2_supporting would not apply.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.00199% (5/251286 alleles), n>1. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: 'Use ATM PM3/BP2 table for evidence of variants in trans with a pathogenic variant in recessive disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: no data on phase with another 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 in non-repeat regions or stop-loss variants.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is intronic with no predicted protein length change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: 'Use for genomic frameshift and truncating variants with PTC upstream of p.R3047; can apply supporting for splice variants with PTC upstream of p.Arg3047 when PVS1_VS(RNA) applied.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a deep intronic substitution without frameshift or PTC. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: 'Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.' The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: 'Cosegregation with disease in multiple affected family members.' The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data are available. 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 low rate of benign missense variation and where missense is a common disease mechanism.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is intronic and not a missense change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: 'Protein: REVEL >0.7333; RNA: at least one well-established in silico predictor shows impact on splicing.' The evidence for this variant shows: CADD score low (1.33) and SpliceAI maximum 0.26 (below typical thresholds). Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP4
