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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	May 20, 2023	In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142152). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NBN-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change affects codon 616 of the NBN mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NBN protein. -

The c.1848A>G variant (also known as p.Q616Q), located in coding exon 12 of the NBN gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1848. This nucleotide substitution does not change the glutamine at codon 616. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
