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]

Variant summary: NBN c.842T>G (p.Leu281X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251318 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.842T>G has been reported in the literature in a compound heterozygous individual affected with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (Patel_2015). Functional assessment of lymphoblastoid cell lines from the patient and controls provided confirmation that the variant is a null mutation that abrogated protein expression, and that his cells scored as radiosensitive. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu281*) 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 (rs786205135, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Nijmegen breakagesyndrome (PMID: 25677497). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190228). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The NBN c.842T>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Leu281*). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with Nijmegen breakage syndrome (Patel et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25677497). Analysis of patient-derived lymphocytes indicated the absence of NBN protein expression (Patel et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25677497). This variant is reported in 1 of 251,000 alleles in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-90982646-A-C; Table E3, Hu et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29922827). Nonsense variants in NBN are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

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

The p.L281* variant (also known as c.842T>G), located in coding exon 7 of the NBN gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 842. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 7. This variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state in a patient with low T-cell receptor excision circles and non-severe combined immunodeficiency T lymphopenia, who underwent whole exome sequencing and was diagnosed with Nijmegen Breakage syndrome (Patel JP et al. J. Clin. Immunol. 2015 Feb;35:227-33). 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. -
