Genes affected
MRE11 (HGNC:7230): (MRE11 homolog, double strand break repair nuclease) This gene encodes a nuclear protein involved in homologous recombination, telomere length maintenance, and DNA double-strand break repair. By itself, the protein has 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and endonuclease activity. The protein forms a complex with the RAD50 homolog; this complex is required for nonhomologous joining of DNA ends and possesses increased single-stranded DNA endonuclease and 3' to 5' exonuclease activities. In conjunction with a DNA ligase, this protein promotes the joining of noncomplementary ends in vitro using short homologies near the ends of the DNA fragments. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 13, 2014MRE11A has been only recently described in association with cancer predisposition and the risks are not well understood. This variant is denoted MRE11A c.1163G>A at the cDNA level, p.Arg388Gln (R388Q) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Glutamine (CGG>CAG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MRE11A Arg388Gln was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This variant is a semi-conservative substitution in which a positive polar amino acid is replaced with a neutral polar one, altering a position that is well conserved throughout evolution and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses are inconsistent with regard to the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. On a molecular level, the impact of this missense variant on protein structure and function is not known and thus we consider this to be a variant of uncertain significance. Furthermore, based on the currently available information, cancer risks associated with this variant, and the MRE11A gene, remain unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoOct 08, 2019To the best of our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00014 (5/34588 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 17, 2022The p.R388Q variant (also known as c.1163G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the MRE11A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1163. The arginine at codon 388 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 23, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 388 of the MRE11 protein (p.Arg388Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780134, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MRE11-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127969). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
