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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 03, 2023The c.2234+2T>G intronic variant results from a T to G substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 15 in the NBN gene. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the NBN gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 26 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown; however, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -

Microcephaly, normal intelligence and immunodeficiency Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 07, 2023This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 15 of the NBN gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs142301194, gnomAD 0.0009%). 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: 185026). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 15 and introduces a new termination codon (Invitae). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant disrupts the ATM interaction domain of the NBN protein (PMID: 24894818, 21035407), which is important for activating ATM in the double-strand break repair pathway (PMID: 15964794, 15048089). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on NBN protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
