Classification rationale
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.

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. |

|
| 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. |

|
| 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. |

| 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

|
| BP5 | N/A | Not applicable: the ATM VCEP marks BP5 as not applicable, and no separate disease-causing variant is documented. |
cspec

| BP7 | N/A | Not applicable: BP7 applies only to synonymous or deep intronic variants, and this is a coding nonsense change. |
