Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 (Very Strong): stop-gain p.Trp1858Ter is a null allele predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay, removing the C-terminal kinase region.
2
PM3 (Moderate): one unrelated A-T proband (AT35RM) with a confident phenotype carries the variant with a second truncating ATM allele, phase unknown (2.0 points).
3
PM2 (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v4.1, v2.1, and Canada (AF = 0), far below the ≤0.001% threshold.
4
PM5 (Supporting): the premature stop at residue 1858 lies upstream of the VCEP truncation cutoff p.Arg3047.
5
Overall: Pathogenic under the ClinGen HBOP ATM VCEP v1.5, from PVS1 (very strong) plus PM2 and PM5 (supporting) satisfying Rule 4 (≥1 very strong + ≥2 supporting), with PM3 (moderate) as additional support.
Final determination: Rule4 of the ClinGen HBOP ATM VCEP v1.5 criteria-combination framework (==1 Pathogenic.Very Strong plus >=2 Pathogenic.Supporting) is satisfied by PVS1 very strong with PM2 supporting and PM5 supporting, classifying the variant as Pathogenic.

Criterion Status Rationale Evidence used
PVS1 Met Met (Very Strong): stop-gain at residue 1858 is a null allele predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay, removing the C-terminal kinase region.
cspec vcep_atm_pvs1_1_5 pvs1_gene_context pvs1_variant_assessment pvs1_generic_framework spliceai
PS1 N/A Not applicable: this is a nonsense change, and PS1 applies only to missense or splice-region variants.
cspec vcep_atm_ps1_1_5 spliceai clinvar
PS2 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP does not apply de novo criteria, and no trio or parental testing data exists for this variant.
cspec
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no direct functional assay evidence was available; the sole functional-screen entry is a computational prediction, which the VCEP excludes.

PS4 Not met Not met: no case-control study of this variant exists; only case observations without a p-value or odds ratio are documented.
PMID:10864201 PMID:12105990 clinvar cspec
PM1 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP declares PM1 not applicable, and the variant is a stop-gain, not a missense substitution.

PM3 Met Met (Moderate): one unrelated A-T proband (AT35RM) with a confident phenotype carries the variant with a second truncating ATM allele, phase unknown (2.0 points).

PM4 N/A Not applicable: PM4 is for stop-loss variants; this is a stop-gain (nonsense) change.
cspec
PM5 Met Met (Supporting): the premature stop at residue 1858 lies upstream of the VCEP truncation cutoff p.Arg3047.
cspec clinvar PMID:12105990 PMID:10864201
PM6 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks PM6 not applicable, and no unconfirmed-de-novo or parental testing data exists.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no segregation data exists; no affected relative, parental, or meiosis testing is reported for this variant.
PMID:10864201 PMID:12105990 PMID:23807571 PMID:25614872 cspec
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP declares PP2 not applicable, and the variant is a truncating change, not missense.
cspec
PP3 Not met Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.01 is well below the 0.2 splicing threshold, and the missense sub-path does not apply to a nonsense variant.
spliceai cspec bayesdel vcep_suppl_tables1_pmid_40580951
PP4 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP routes phenotype evidence through the PM3/BP2 points system and marks PP4 not applicable.
cspec vcep_atm_pm3_bp2_1_5
PP5 N/A Not applicable: the ClinVar record is a 1-star single-laboratory submission, not an expert-panel classification, so PP5 cannot be applied.
clinvar cspec
BA1 Not met Not met: allele frequency 0 (absent from gnomAD v4.1) is far below the >0.5% BA1 threshold.
gnomad_v4 cspec
BS1 Not met Not met: allele frequency 0 (absent from gnomAD v4.1) is below the >0.05% BS1 threshold.
gnomad_v4 cspec
BS2 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP explicitly marks BS2 not applicable for ATM.
cspec
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no calibrated assay evidence that the variant preserves ATM function was available.

BP3 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP3 not applicable, and this is a nonsense substitution, not an in-frame repeat-region indel.
cspec
BP4 N/A Not applicable: per the lab override, the BP4 splicing sub-path (SpliceAI ≤0.1) is not applied to nonsense variants whose mechanism is protein truncation.
cspec spliceai vcep_suppl_tables1_pmid_40580951
BP5 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP5 not applicable, and no alternate molecular basis of disease is documented.
cspec
BP6 N/A Not applicable: the ClinVar record is a 1-star single-laboratory Pathogenic submission, not a benign expert-panel classification, so BP6 cannot be applied.
