Microcephaly, normal intelligence and immunodeficiency Uncertain:5
The NBN c.224G>C (p.Gly75Ala) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0018% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_supporting; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-90993699-C-G). Six of seven in silico tools predict a deleterious effect of this variant on protein function (PP3), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. This variant has been reported in an individual diagnosed with mismatch repair proficient sigmoid colon cancer at age 30 (PMID: 27978560). It is also present 1x in the FLOSSIES database which contains genetic variants from women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (https://whi.color.com/variant/8-90993699-C-G). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with Nijmegan breakage syndrome or breast cancer. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PM2_supporting, PP3. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 75 of the NBN protein (p.Gly75Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782179, gnomAD 0.002%). 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: 142014). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
The p.G75A variant (also known as c.224G>C), located in coding exon 3 of the NBN gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 224. The glycine at codon 75 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been previously identified in an individual from a North American cohort of individuals with early onset colon cancer (Pearlman R et al. JAMA Oncol, 2017 Apr;3:464-471). Additionally, this variant was reported in 3/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 2/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: NBN c.224G>C (p.Gly75Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Forkhead-associated (FHA) domain (IPR000253) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251334 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.224G>C has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with MMR proficient sigmoid colon cancer (Pearlman_2016). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
