PVS1
PVS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines: "Very Strong Strength: Very Strong Use ATM PVS1 Decision Tree Modification Type: Gene-specific,Strength". The evidence for this variant shows: c.6006+13G>C is located outside the canonical splice site (+1/+2) and is intronic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant is not predicted to result in loss-of-function per the ATM PVS1 decision tree.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines: "Strong Strength: Strong 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: no amino acid change is produced (intronic), and splicing impact is predicted to be negligible. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because there is no protein-altering change to compare.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines: "PS2: Confirmed de novo in a patient with the disease and no family history of the disease.". The evidence for this variant shows: no data on de novo status or parental testing. Therefore, this criterion is not applied due to lack of de novo evidence.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines: "Strong Strength: Strong Do not use as strong. Modification Type: Gene-specific". The evidence for this variant shows: no functional studies assessing ATM-specific feature rescue or radiosensitivity. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because functional evidence is absent.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines: "PS4: Case-control studies with p-value ≤0.05 AND (Odds ratio ≥2.0 or lower 95% CI ≥1.5).". The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control or proband frequency data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied due to lack of statistical evidence.
PM1
