Descriptor síndrome de Nijmegen
Entry term(s) síndrome de rotura de Nijmegen
Scope note: Síndrome de inestabilidad cromosómica que resulta de una respuesta defectuosa a roturas en el ADN bicatenario. Además de la característica FACIES y MICROCEFALIA, los pacientes presentan desde RADIOSENSIBILIDAD o inmunodeficiencia hasta un aumento del riesgo de cáncer y retraso del crecimiento. Las mutaciones causales se producen en el gen NBS1, localizado en el cromosoma 8q21. El gen NBS1 codifica la nibrina, la proteína reguladora clave del complejo proteico R/M/N (RAD50/MRE11/NBS1) que reconoce e interviene en la respuesta celular al DAÑO del ADN causado por las RADIACIONES IONIZANTES.

Scope note: A chromosome instability syndrome resulting from a defective response to DNA double-strand breaks. In addition to characteristic FACIES and MICROCEPHALY, patients have a range of findings including RADIOSENSITIVITY, immunodeficiency, increased cancer risk, and growth retardation. Causative mutations occur in the NBS1 gene, located on human chromosome 8q21. NBS1 codes for nibrin, the key regulator protein of the R/M/N (RAD50/MRE11/NBS1) protein complex which senses and mediates cellular response to DNA DAMAGE caused by IONIZING RADIATION.
