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]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects codon 266 of the NBN mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NBN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs368786672, gnomAD 0.006%). 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: 382019). Studies have shown that this variant is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (Invitae). 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. -

Variant summary: NBN c.798G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant creates a 3' acceptor site. While internal RNA splicing data have been obtained for this variant (Labcorp Genetics, formerly Invitae) at this time the results are inconclusive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251280 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.798G>A in individuals affected with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome have been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30287823, 36243179). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 382019). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Observed in an individual with breast cancer but also in an unaffected control (Momozawa et al., 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30287823) -

The NBN p.Pro266= variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs368786672) as “with other allele”, ClinVar (classified as likely benign by GeneDx and Ambry Genetics; and as uncertain significance by Invitae and Ambry Genetics) and LOVD 3.0 (observed 2x). The variant was identified in control databases in 3 of 246,064 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000012 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European in 1 of 111,586 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009) and South Asian in 2 of 30,780 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007), but not in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian or Finnish populations. The p.Pro266= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and it occurs at a non-conserved nucleotide outside of the splicing consensus sequence. However, 3 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict the introduction of a cryptic splice site; this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.798G>A variant (also known as p.P266P), located in coding exon 7 of the NBN gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 798. This nucleotide substitution does not change the amino acid at codon 266. This alteration was observed with an allele frequency of 0.00014 in 7,051 unselected female breast cancer patients and was not observed in 11,241 female controls of Japanese ancestry. In addition, it was not observed in unselected male breast cancer patients and was observed with an allele frequency of 0.0001 in 12490 male controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). This nucleotide position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
