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 testingInvitaeDec 18, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser53Cysfs*9) in the NBN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NBN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9590180, 16415040). This variant is present in population databases (rs767454740, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24549055). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371121). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 28, 2022The c.156_157delTT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 2 of the NBN gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides between nucleotide positions 156 and 157, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S53Cfs*9). This deletion has been reported in one high risk breast and/or ovarian cancer individual (Castéra L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2014 Nov;22:1305-13). (Hu C et al. JAMA, 2018 06;319:2401-2409). (Byrjalsen A et al. PLoS Genet, 2020 12;16:e1009231). (Zuntini R et al. Int J Mol Sci, 2021 May;22:). 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. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 11, 2016Variant summary: The variant of interest causes a frameshift mutation resulting in a predicted truncated NBN protein, a mechanism for disease. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 1/121384, which does not exceed the predicted maximum expected allele frequency for a pathogenic NBN variant of 1/8000 for HBOC. The variant of interest has been reported in an affected individual via a publication that consisted of a cohort of HBOC individuals. The variant of interest has not been reported in clinical laboratories or databases. Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
