Gene: NBN
Alternate names for this Gene: AT-V1|AT-V2|ATV|NBS|NBS1|P95
Gene Summary: 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.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 8
Location in Chromosome : 8q21.3
Description of this Gene: nibrin
Type of Gene: protein-coding
