Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000400.4(ERCC2):​c.2092C>T​(p.Gln698*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q698Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

ERCC2 (HGNC:3434): (ERCC excision repair 2, TFIIH core complex helicase subunit) The nucleotide excision repair pathway is a mechanism to repair damage to DNA. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair and is an integral member of the basal transcription factor BTF2/TFIIH complex. The gene product has ATP-dependent DNA helicase activity and belongs to the RAD3/XPD subfamily of helicases. Defects in this gene can result in three different disorders, the cancer-prone syndrome xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D, trichothiodystrophy, and Cockayne syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

NM_000400.3(ERCC2):c.2092C>T(Q698*) is a nonsense variant classified as pathogenic in the context of ERCC2-related disorders. Q698* has been observed in a case with relevant disease (PMID: 27862069). Relevant functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. Q698* has not been observed in referenced population frequency databases. In summary, NM_000400.3(ERCC2):c.2092C>T(Q698*) is a nonsense variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening.
