Reasoning
The ATM VCEP permits PM2 at Supporting strength when frequency is ≤0.001% in the gnomAD subpopulation with the highest frequency, with an exception only when frequency is >0.001% but n=1 in a single subpopulation and absent from every other subpopulation. The highest all-comers subpopulation frequency is 0.0822368% in gnomAD v4.1 (Middle Eastern, 5/6,080 alleles), and gnomAD v2.1 is 0.0555247% (Remaining individuals, 4/7,204 alleles); neither meets the rarity threshold, and neither is the n=1 exception. The non-cancer v2.1 exome highest subpopulation frequency is 0.0299222% (2/6,684 alleles), also above the threshold. Therefore PM2 is not met.
VCEP rule
Frequency **≤.001%** in gnomAD subpopulation with the highest frequency ... Exception: If >0.001% but n=1 in a single subpopulation (not present in any other subpopulation), that is sufficiently rare and PM2\_supporting would apply.
Evidence considered
- ClinGen HBOP ATM VCEP v1.6 CSPEC PM2 rule: Frequency ≤.001% in gnomAD subpopulation with the highest frequency. Exception: If >0.001% but n=1 in a single subpopulation (not present in any other subpopulation), that is sufficiently rare and PM2_supporting would apply.
- gnomAD v4.1 all-comers: highest subpopulation is Middle Eastern, AF 0.000822368 (0.0822368%), 5/6,080 alleles, homozygotes 0; the variant is also observed in other subpopulations.
- gnomAD v2.1 all-comers: highest subpopulation is Remaining individuals, AF 0.000555247 (0.0555247%), 4/7,204 alleles, homozygotes 1; the variant is also observed in other subpopulations.
- GNOMAD_V2_1_NON_CANCER exomes: highest subpopulation is Remaining individuals, AF 0.000299222 (0.0299222%), 2/6,684 alleles, homozygotes 1; this is above 0.001% and is not a single-observation-only occurrence.
