Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_002485.5(NBN):​c.1171C>T​(p.Gln391*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q391Q) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

NBN (HGNC:7652): (nibrin) Mutations in this gene are associated with Nijmegen breakage syndrome, an autosomal recessive chromosomal instability syndrome characterized by microcephaly, growth retardation, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. The encoded protein is a member of the MRE11/RAD50 double-strand break repair complex which consists of 5 proteins. This gene product is thought to be involved in DNA double-strand break repair and DNA damage-induced checkpoint activation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln391*) in the NBN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NBN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9590180, 16415040). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NBN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480063). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q391* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1171C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the NBN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1171. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 10. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
