Genes affected

NHEJ1 (HGNC:25737): (non-homologous end joining factor 1) Double-strand breaks in DNA result from genotoxic stresses and are among the most damaging of DNA lesions. This gene encodes a DNA repair factor essential for the nonhomologous end-joining pathway, which preferentially mediates repair of double-stranded breaks. Mutations in this gene cause different kinds of severe combined immunodeficiency disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain:1Other:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 27, 2025	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 57 of the NHEJ1 protein (p.Arg57Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs61753339, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) (PMID: 26122175). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 235289). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NHEJ1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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: NHEJ1 c.170G>A (p.Arg57Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the XLF, N-terminal domain (IPR015381) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00028 in 251482 control chromosomes (gnomAD), predominantly at a frequency of 0.0006 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NHEJ1 causing Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (0.00035), suggesting that the variant may be a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. c.170G>A has been reported in the literature in settings of WGS/WES in at least one heterozygous individual affected with common variable immunodeficiency disorder (CVID) and in a heterozygous individual with very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. van Schouwenburg_2015, Kelsen_2015). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two assessments for this variant have been submitted to ClinVar after 2014 and both classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
