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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSeattle Children's Hospital Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Seattle Children's Hospital-The p.Lys219Asnfs*16 variant is predicted to substitute the lysine at amino acid position 219 with an asparagine followed by a premature termination codon after 16 amino acids. This is predicted to result in decreased function of the NBN protein due to a truncated or absent gene product. The p.Lys219Asnfs*16 variant is a known founder variant among individuals of Slavic ancestry and has been reported many times in the homozygous state in affected individuals (PMID: 9590180, 11093281, 29419426 and others). The p.Lys219Asnfs*16 variant accounts for approximately 100% of pathogenic alleles in individuals from Poland, Czech Republic, and Ukraine and for 70% of pathogenic alleles in the United States. It is estimated that the carrier frequency of the p.Lys219Asnfs*16 variant is as high as 1 in 154 individuals of Slavic origin but varies by region (PMID: 11093281). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalSep 28, 2022The NBN c.657_661del (p.Lys219fs) change deletes five nucleotides and causes a frameshift and the creation of a premature stop codon. This change is predicted to cause protein truncation or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay. This variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.040% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This is the most common pathogenic variant reported in individuals affected with Nijmegen breakage syndrome (PMID: 9590180, 20301355). In addition, this variant has been identified as heterozygous in individuals with many cancer types including breast, lymphoma, prostate, melanoma, medulloblastoma, and others (PMID: 15185344, 14973119, 18606567, 19908051, 24113799). Case-control studies have demonstrated evidence of association with breast cancer (OR = 2.63), prostate cancer (OR = 5.87), and lymphoma (OR = 2.93) (PMID: 23317186, 24113799). This variant is present 5x in the FLOSSIES database which contains genetic variants from women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (https://whi.color.com/). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 08, 2019The p.Lys219AsnfsX16 variant in NBN is the most common NBN variant associated with autosomal recessive Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (NBS) and has been reported as a founder variant in Slavic populations (Varon 1998). Additionally, in the heterozygous state, this variant has been found to increase risk to certain NBS-related cancers (Gao 2013, Zhang 2012). It has also been identified in 52/128774 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). However, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 6940). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 219 and leads to a premature termination codon 16 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NBN gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive NBS. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function and show that this variant leads to the production of an abnormal protein product (Maser 2001, Dzikiewicz-Krawczyk 2012). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive NBS. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM3_VeryStrong, PS3_Supporting. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys219Asnfs*16) in the NBN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 536 amino acid(s) of the NBN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs587776650, gnomAD 0.04%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with NBN-related conditions (PMID: 14973119, 15185344, 18606567, 19908051, 24113799). It is commonly reported in individuals of Slavic ancestry (PMID: 9590180). This variant is also known as 657del5. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6940). 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 NBN function (PMID: 16033915, 22131123, 22941933). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionSep 01, 2022The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.020%). It is predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000006940 / PMID: 9590180). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

risk factor, flagged submissionclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 08, 2019The p.Lys219AsnfsX16 variant in NBN is associated with an increased risk for NBN-related cancers (Gao 2013, Zhang 2012). Large meta-analyses have reported significant odds ratios in carriers of the variant for multiple cancers, particularly breast cancer (OR = 2.63 [95% CI=1.76-3.93]), prostate cancer (OR = 5.87 [95% CI=2.51-13.75]), and lymphoma (OR = 2.93 [95% CI=1.62-5.29]) (Gao 2013, Zhang 2012). Additionally, in the bi-allelic state, this variant is the most common variant associated with autosomal recessive Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (NBS). It has also been identified in 52/128774 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 6940). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 219 and leads to a premature termination codon 16 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NBN gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive NBS. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function and show that this variant leads to the production of an abnormal protein product (Maser 2001, Dzikiewicz-Krawczyk 2012). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as an established risk allele for breast, prostate, and lymphoid cancers. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoAug 22, 2022This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the NBN mRNA and causes the premature termination of NBN protein synthesis. Functional studies have shown that this variant results in two proteins, the N-terminal p26 fragment and the p70 fragment produced from an internal initiation codon at position p.221 that lacks the N-terminal portion (PMID: 11279524 (2001), 25485873 (2014)). Another study has shown that the variant caused increased chromosomal instability in homozygous cells (PMID: 22131123 (2012)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00041 (21/50678 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. The c.657_661del variant is the most common pathogenic variant found in individuals affected by Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) (PMID: 9590180 (1998), 20301355 (2017)). In the published literature, previous studies showed an association to breast cancer (PMID: 12845677 (2003), 22491912 (2012), 23317186 (2012)), however, recent studies do not support this association (PMID: 34072463 (2021), 33471974 (2021), 33471991 (2021)). The variant is also reported to have an increased risk overall for cancer (PMID: 24113799 (2013), 15185344 (2004)), including pancreatic cancer (PMID: 27150568 (2016), 35309086 (2022)), prostate cancer (PMID: 14973119 (2004)), medulloblastoma (PMID: 19908051 (2010)), and relapse of B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) (PMID: 29419426 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 14, 2023The NBN c.657_661del; p.Lys219AsnfsTer16 variant (rs587776650), also known as 657del5, is reported in the literature as the most common pathogenic variant and a founder mutation in the Slavic population in individuals affected with Nijmegen breakage syndrome (Varon 1998). Heterozygous carriers are also reported to have an increased risk for various cancers, including breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, lymphoma, melanoma, and medulloblastoma (Ciara 2010, Gao 2013, Steffen 2004). However, more recent large, multi-ethnic case control studies have demonstrated that heterozygous pathogenic NBN variants are not associated with an increased risk for breast cancer (Breast Cancer Association Consortium 2021, Hu 2021). Data regarding other cancer risks remains inconclusive. This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 6940), and is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.040% (52/128,774 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting 5 nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. However, functional studies show two in-frame start codons created by the frameshift that can generate truncated NBN proteins with partial functionality (Lins 2009, Maser 2001). Based on available information, the p.Lys219AsnfsTer16 variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Breast Cancer Association Consortium, Dorling L, Carvalho S, et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 13, 2021The c.657_661delACAAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 6 of the NBN gene, results from a deletion of 5 nucleotides at positions 657 to 661, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K219Nfs*16). The c.657_661delACAAA mutation (commonly referred to as 657del5 in the literature) is the most common NBN mutation in Eastern European individuals with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (Varon R et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2000 Nov;8:900-2). This mutation has been reported with increased frequency in individuals with medulloblastoma, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, melanoma, breast cancer, colon cancer, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (Borecka M et al. Gene, 2016 Aug;587:169-72; Ciara E et al. Acta Neuropathol., 2010 Mar;119:325-34; Cybulski C et al. Cancer Res., 2004 Feb;64:1215-9; Domagala P et al. PLoS ONE, 2015 Jun;10:e0130393; Kraus C et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2017 Jan;140:95-102; Lhota F et al. Clin. Genet., 2016 Oct;90:324-33; Steffen J et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2004 Aug;111:67-71). This variant has also been observed, in the homozyous and compound heterozygous state, in patients with Nijmegen Breakage syndrome (Matsuura S et al. Nat Genet, 1998 Jun;19:179-81; Kleier S et al. Clin Genet, 2000 May;57:384-7; Szczauba K et al. J. Appl. Genet., 2012 May;53:189-91). 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. However, functional studies have indicated that this alteration may partially escape nonsense-mediated decay and produce a protein with some residual function (Maser RS et al. Nat Genet, 2001 Apr;27:417-21). Based on the supporting clinical evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

It is also known as 657del5 in the literature. Heterozygous carriers may have increased risk for several types of cancers including breast, lymphoma, melanoma, medulloblastoma, prostate and others (PMID: 15185344, 14973119, 18606567, 19908051, 24113799). Experimental studies propose that this deletion encodes a partially functional protein that diminishes the severity of the NBS phenotype (PMID: 11279524). The mutation database Clinvar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID:6940). -

NBN-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 20, 2024The NBN c.657_661del5 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys219Asnfs*16). The c.657_661del variant (also known as c.657del5) in the NBN gene is a founder pathogenic variant in the Slavic population and causes Nijmegen breakage syndrome in the homozygous state or in combination with another pathogenic variant in NBN (Varon et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9590180). Functionally, it has been hypothesized to be a hypomorph, which results in a truncated protein with residual activity of the full-length NBN protein (Maser et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11279524; Dzikiewicz-Krawczyk et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22131123). However, this variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. In ClinVar, this variant has been classified as pathogenic as well as a risk factor (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/6940/). Frameshift variants in NBN are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The NBN p.Lys219Asnfs*16 variant was identified in 50 of 30494 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, medulloblastoma, prostate cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or colorectal cancer and was present in 20 of 6450 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.003) from healthy individuals (Borecka 2016, Ciara 2010, Cybulski 2004, Domagala 2015, Kraus 2017, Lhota 2016, Steffen 2004, Susswein 2015, Tung 2015). This variant is a Slavic founder mutation with carrier frequency among newborns in the range of 1/154 in the Czech Republic to 1/190 in Poland (Steffen 2004). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587776650 as "With Pathogenic allele"), ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics and twelve other submitters), and LOVD 3.0 (4x). The variant was identified in control databases in 55 of 276598 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European in 50 of 126360 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), Other in 1 of 6436 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Finnish in 2 of 25738 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), and Latino in 2 of 34324 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006); it was not observed in the African, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or South Asian populations. Functional studies have reported that the variant leads to two truncated fragments, p26 and p70 nibrin, and the translation of a short N-terminal protein with FHA/BRCT domains, therefore maintaining some function of the full-length NBS1 protein (Dzikiewicz-Krawczyk 2008, Cilli 2014). The variant has been associated with an increased risk of breast cancer and medulloblastoma, and a significant increase in overall cancer risks (Zhang 2013, Ciara 2010, Gao 2013, Borecka 2016). The c.657_661del variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 219 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 234. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the NBN gene are an established mechanism of disease in NBN-associated cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
