The NM_133433.4(NIPBL):c.133C>G (p.Arg45Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene NIPBL is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 1 TSG citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.000000684 (AC=1) in the gnomAD database across 1,461,490 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000009. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.R45Q: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 1918803, 1 star)

Genes affected

NIPBL (HGNC:28862): (NIPBL cohesin loading factor) This gene encodes the homolog of the Drosophila melanogaster Nipped-B gene product and fungal Scc2-type sister chromatid cohesion proteins. The Drosophila protein facilitates enhancer-promoter communication of remote enhancers and plays a role in developmental regulation. It is also homologous to a family of chromosomal adherins with broad roles in sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, and DNA repair. The human protein has a bipartite nuclear targeting sequence and a putative HEAT repeat. Condensins, cohesins and other complexes with chromosome-related functions also contain HEAT repeats. Mutations in this gene result in Cornelia de Lange syndrome, a disorder characterized by dysmorphic facial features, growth delay, limb reduction defects, and cognitive disability. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Classification according to ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	O3Absent or very rare in population		Absent or extremely rare in gnomAD (AC ≤ 2) — O3 moderate; GnomAD: AF = 0.000001, AC = 1 — absent/extremely rare (O3 moderate [+2])
	O6Computational evidence supports deleterious effect		Computational evidence supports a deleterious/oncogenic effect; Missense variant — primary computational scorer supports an oncogenic/deleterious effect
