Description
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg633*) in the MRE11 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MRE11 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23080121, 23912341). This variant is present in population databases (rs137852759, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder, nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies and/or breast cancer (PMID: 8445618, 10612394, 19383352, 22863007). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8782). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects MRE11 function (PMID: 10612394, 14690604, 25040471). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
