Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 (Very Strong): nonsense change p.(Glu450Ter) predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay, upstream of critical ATM domains.
2
PM2 (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v4.1 and v2.1, meeting the 0.001% allele-frequency threshold.
3
PM5 (Supporting): premature termination codon at residue 450, upstream of the VCEP p.Arg3047 truncation threshold.
4
Pathogenic: matches ATM VCEP v1.5 Rule4 (one Very Strong plus two Supporting criteria).
Final determination: Rule4 of the ATM VCEP v1.5 framework (1 Pathogenic.Very Strong + >=2 Pathogenic.Supporting) is satisfied, yielding Pathogenic.
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
Criterion Status Rationale Evidence used
PVS1 Met Met (Very Strong): nonsense change p.(Glu450Ter) at ~15% of the protein is predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay, upstream of critical ATM domains.
cspec vcep_atm_pvs1_1_5 pvs1_variant_assessment pvs1_gene_context pvs1_generic_framework
PS1 N/A Not applicable: this is a nonsense (stop-gain) variant, not a missense change, so there is no amino acid substitution to compare against a reference variant.
cspec vcep_atm_ps1_1_5
PS2 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP does not use PS2, since de novo occurrences are not informative for autosomal recessive disease.
cspec
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence - this variant was not confirmed to have been tested in any VCEP-approved functional assay (Mitui 2009, Barone 2009, Scott 2002).
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control enrichment data (odds ratio, confidence interval, or p-value) for this variant was available.
cspec
PM1 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP explicitly marks PM1 (mutational hotspot) as not applicable for this gene.
cspec
PM2 Met Met (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v4.1 and v2.1, meeting the VCEP's 0.001% allele-frequency threshold.
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2 gnomad_canada
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-proband or in-trans evidence with a pathogenic ATM variant was available.
cspec vcep_atm_pm3_bp2_1_5
PM4 N/A Not applicable: PM4 applies only to stop-loss variants, and this is a stop-gain (nonsense) change.
cspec
PM5 Met Met (Supporting): premature termination codon at residue 450 lies upstream of the VCEP's p.Arg3047 truncating-variant threshold.
cspec
PM6 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks PM6 as not applicable, and no de novo occurrence is documented.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected relatives or segregation data were available to support co-segregation.
cspec
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks PP2 as not applicable, and this is not a missense variant.
cspec
PP3 N/A Not applicable: the VCEP's SpliceAI-based PP3 excludes nonsense variants, which also cannot be combined with PVS1.
cspec spliceai
PP4 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP specification marks PP4 as not applicable.
cspec
PP5 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks PP5 as not applicable, and the ClinVar record is a single laboratory submission.
cspec clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: absent from gnomAD v4.1, below the >0.5% BA1 allele-frequency threshold.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS1 Not met Not met: absent from gnomAD v4.1, below the >0.05% BS1 allele-frequency threshold.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS2 N/A Not applicable: ATM cancer predisposition has incomplete penetrance, so observation in healthy individuals cannot be used as BS2.
cspec
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence - this variant was not confirmed to have been tested in any VCEP-approved functional assay.
BS4 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BS4 as not applicable for autosomal recessive ataxia-telangiectasia.
cspec
BP1 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP1 as not applicable, and this variant is itself truncating, not missense.
cspec
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no unaffected-carrier, trans-phase, or co-occurrence observations were available.
cspec vcep_atm_pm3_bp2_1_5
BP3 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP explicitly marks BP3 as not applicable for all ATM variants.
cspec
BP4 N/A Not applicable: the SpliceAI-based BP4 sub-path excludes nonsense variants, and no calibrated missense predictor applies.
cspec spliceai bayesdel
BP5 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP5 as not applicable, and no separate disease-causing variant is documented.
cspec
BP6 N/A Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP6 as not applicable, and the ClinVar record is a single laboratory Likely pathogenic submission.
cspec clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 applies only to synonymous or deep intronic variants, and this is a coding nonsense change.
