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]

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 148 of the NBN protein (p.Thr148Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Nijmegen breakage syndrome (PMID: 31729086). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411773). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NBN function (PMID: 31729086). 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.442A>G (p.Thr148Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCT domain (BRCT domain) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251282 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.442A>G has been reported in the literature in three homozygous individuals affected with infertility (Fivet_2020) but has not been reported in any individuals with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome. These report(s) do 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. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31729086). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411773). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The p.T148A variant (also known as c.442A>G), located in coding exon 4 of the NBN gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 442. The threonine at codon 148 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. 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. -
