Abstract excerpt
Nijmegen breakage syndrome caused by biallelic pathogenic variants of the DNA-damage response gene NBN, is characterized by severe microcephaly, cancer proneness, infertility, and karyotype abnormalities. We previously reported NBN variants in siblings suffering from fertility defects. Here, we identify a new founder NBN variant (c.442A>G, p.(Thr148Ala)) in Lebanese patients associated with isolated infertility....
