Genes affected
MRE11 (HGNC:7230): (MRE11 homolog, double strand break repair nuclease) This gene encodes a nuclear protein involved in homologous recombination, telomere length maintenance, and DNA double-strand break repair. By itself, the protein has 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and endonuclease activity. The protein forms a complex with the RAD50 homolog; this complex is required for nonhomologous joining of DNA ends and possesses increased single-stranded DNA endonuclease and 3' to 5' exonuclease activities. In conjunction with a DNA ligase, this protein promotes the joining of noncomplementary ends in vitro using short homologies near the ends of the DNA fragments. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The stop-gained variant c.1897C>T p.Arg633Ter in the MRE11 gene has been reported in the homozygous state in individuals affected with Ataxia telangiectasia and breast cancer Taylor et al., 2015; Bartkova et al., 2008. This variant is reported with the allele frequency 0.002% in the gnomAD Exomes and novel not in any individuals in 1000 Genomes. It has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic Multiple submissions. This variant is predicted to cause a loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants has been previously reported to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 13, 2021The p.R633* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1897C>T), located in coding exon 16 of the MRE11A gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1897. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 16. This alteration was first described in a homozygous state in first cousins with ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder (ATLD). Both individuals had features of A-T and increased levels of radiosensitivity, but no detectable ATM mutations (Stewart GS et al. Cell 1999; 99:577-87). The MRE11A p.R633* mutation has also been described in the homozygous state in siblings with ataxia (Chaki et al. Cell. 2012; 150:533-548). In another study, this alteration was detected in one individual with a personal and family history of breast cancer (Bartkova et al. J Mol Oncol. 2008; 2(4):296-316). This variant was also identified in a cohort of 3,579 African males diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing (Matejcic M et al. JCO Precis Oncol, 2020 Jan;4:32-43). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 14, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg633*) in the MRE11 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MRE11 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23080121, 23912341). This variant is present in population databases (rs137852759, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder, nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies and/or breast cancer (PMID: 8445618, 10612394, 19383352, 22863007). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8782). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects MRE11 function (PMID: 10612394, 14690604, 25040471). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
