OpenThis sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 736 of the ATM protein (p.Ala736Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780617, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 28135145). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135743). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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.
"This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (4 clinical laboratories)."

VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)
PVS1 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: "Null Variant (nonsense, fs, start codon, splicing +1/2, startgain, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease". The evidence for this variant shows: A736V is a missense change, not predicted to cause loss of function. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant is not a null variant as required.
PS1 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: "Use for protein changes as long as splicing is ruled-out for both alterations". The evidence for this variant shows: no other nucleotide change with the same amino acid substitution A736V has been reported as pathogenic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2 (Not Applied)
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 data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: "Use when a variant fails to rescue both an ATM specific feature (e.g. phosphorylation of ATM-specific targets) AND radiosensitivity". The evidence for this variant shows: no functional studies have been performed for A736V. Therefore, this criterion is not applied due to lack of functional data.
PS4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: "Case-control studies; p-value ≤.05 AND (Odds ratio ≥2 OR lower 95% CI ≥1.5)". The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1 (Not Applied)
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: A736 is not in a known hotspot or critical domain. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 (Supporting) is: "Frequency ≤.001% if n=1 in a single subpopulation; n>1 in one or multiple subpopulations would not be considered rare". The evidence for this variant shows: allele count n=2 across populations. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Supporting strength because the variant is observed more than once.
PM3 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP PM3 guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "Use ATM PM3/BP2 table for recessive observations". The evidence for this variant shows: no trans or compound heterozygous observations. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: "Protein length changes due to in-frame deletions/insertions". The evidence for this variant shows: A736V is a missense substitution with no protein length change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: "Use for genomic frameshift and truncating variants with PTC upstream of p.R3047". The evidence for this variant shows: A736V is a missense change and not at a site of known pathogenic missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6 (Not Applied)
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 evidence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1 (Not Applied)
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. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP2 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP2 is: "Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense is a common mechanism of disease". The evidence for this variant shows: ATM has a range of benign and pathogenic missense variants and no specific enrichment. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: "Protein: REVEL >.7333 or RNA: one predictor shows impact on splicing". The evidence for this variant shows: computational tools predict benign effect and SpliceAI score 0.02 indicates no splicing impact. Therefore, PP3 is not applied.
PP4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: "Patient’s phenotype or family history highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology". The evidence for this variant shows: no patient phenotype information. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP5 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: "Reputable source reports variant as pathogenic". The evidence for this variant shows: ClinVar reports uncertain significance. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: "Filtering Allele Frequency >.5%". The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.000796%. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS1 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: "Filtering Allele Frequency >.05%". The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.000796%, well below threshold. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS2 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: "Observed in a healthy adult individual for a dominant disorder". The evidence for this variant shows: no such observations. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS3 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS3 is: "Use when a variant rescues both an ATM specific feature AND radiosensitivity". The evidence for this variant shows: no functional rescue data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: "Lack of segregation in affected family members". The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation studies. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP1 (Supporting)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: "Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease". The evidence for this variant shows: ATM disease mechanism is primarily loss-of-function and A736V is a missense change. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength.
BP2 (Not Applied)
According to VCEP BP2 guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: "Use ATM PM3/BP2 table for trans observations". The evidence for this variant shows: no cis/trans observations with pathogenic variants. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: "In-frame deletions/insertions in repetitive regions". The evidence for this variant shows: this is a single amino acid substitution. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
