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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Variant summary: NBN c.1124+6G>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 251304 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in NBN causing Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (0.00012 vs 0.0025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1124+6G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer and colorectal cancer (Tung_2014, Yurgelun_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome. A co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA1 c.4357+1G>A; LabCorp), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Two labs classified the variant as likely benign while two classified as VUS. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as a VUS - possibly benign variant.

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

The NBN c.1124+6G>T variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic, LOVD 3.0, or Zhejiang Colon Cancer Databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs375862750) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity; submitters: benign by GeneDx and uncertain significance by Invitae), and Clinvitae (2x). The variant was identified in control databases in 30 of 277024 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001 increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The c.1124+6G>T variant is located in the 5' splice region but does not affect the invariant +1 and +2 positions. However, positions +3 to +6 are part of the splicing consensus sequence and variants involving these positions sometimes affect splicing. 5 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
