Function
Component of the MRE11-RAD50-NBN (MRN complex) which plays a critical role in the cellular response to DNA damage and the maintenance of chromosome integrity. The complex is involved in double- strand break (DSB) repair, DNA recombination, maintenance of telomere integrity, cell cycle checkpoint control and meiosis. The complex possesses single-strand endonuclease activity and double-strand- specific 3'-5' exonuclease activity, which are provided by MRE11. RAD50 may be required to bind DNA ends ...

Haploinsufficiency (HI) Score Details

HI Score:
30
HI Evidence Strength:
Gene Associated with Autosomal Recessive Phenotype (Disclaimer)
HI Disease:
HI Evidence Comments:
Biallelic pathogenic variation in NBN is associated with Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), an autosomal recessive chromosomal instability syndrome characterized by microcephaly, growth retardation, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. The genetic mechanism of this disorder is loss of function, with over 90% of all NBS patients being homozygous for a 5 bp deletion [NM_002485.5(NBN):c.657_661del (p.Lys219fs), commonly described in the literature as 657del5], that gives rise to a frameshift.
