Ambry Genetics | RCV000129561 | SCV000184343 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-05-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.K642R variant (also known as c.1925A>G), located in coding exon 13 of the NBN gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1925. The lysine at codon 642 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/5589 German BRCA1/2-negative probands with breast cancer (Hauke J et al. Cancer Med. 2018 04;7:1349-1358). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000204812 | SCV000260089 | uncertain significance | Microcephaly, normal intelligence and immunodeficiency | 2023-10-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 642 of the NBN protein (p.Lys642Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781547, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of NBN-related conditions (PMID: 29522266). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141169). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |

RCV000204812 | SCV000475289 | uncertain significance | Microcephaly, normal intelligence and immunodeficiency | 2018-01-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. |

RCV000780524 | SCV000917854 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2023-12-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: NBN c.1925A>G (p.Lys642Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251052 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1925A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals from cancer cohort studies without strong evidence for causality (examples: Bova_2016, Belhadj_2023). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36346689, 27148588). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. |

RCV003917419 | SCV004734478 | uncertain significance | NBN-related disorder | 2024-02-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The NBN c.1925A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys642Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0087% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and is listed in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/141169/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. |
