PM2_supporting is met: the variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada, and present at extremely low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (AF=6.20e-07, 1/1,613,950 alleles), well below the VCEP ATM PM2_supporting threshold of ≤0.001%.1 PP3 is met: REVEL score of 0.913 exceeds the VCEP ATM PP3 threshold of >0.7333 for missense variants. AlphaMissense is 0.98 and SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta=0.00).2 No other pathogenic or benign criteria are met. PVS1, PS1, PS3, PS4, PM5, and PP1 are not applicable or not met. BA1, BS1, BS3, BP2, and BP4 are not met. Remaining criteria (PS2, PM1, PM6, PP2, PP4, PP5, BS2, BS4, BP1, BP5, BP6, BP7) are not applicable per VCEP ATM v1.5.0 specifications.3 With PM2_supporting and PP3 as the only criteria met (two pathogenic supporting), there is insufficient evidence to classify this variant beyond Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS) per ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules. No benign criteria are met to trigger conflicting-evidence rules.4

PM2_supporting is met: the variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada, and present at extremely low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (AF=6.20e-07, 1/1,613,950 alleles), well below the VCEP ATM PM2_supporting threshold of ≤0.001%.
Richards et.al., 2015 - Combining rules v1.5.0 criteria-combination framework was evaluated deterministically with applied criteria: PM2 supporting, PP3 supporting; no rule matched the adjudicated criteria.

ClinVar
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (2 clinical laboratories) and as Likely pathogenic (1 clinical laboratory) and as Uncertain Significance by ClinGen Hereditary Breast, Ovarian and Pancreatic Cancer Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen (expert panel). (ClinVarID = 490724)
In silico
SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.00). REVEL score = 0.913. BayesDel score = 0.331457.
Functional
Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. ATM, a kinase involved in the DNA damage response, is mutated in various solid and hematologic malignancies.
