Genes affected
XPC (HGNC:12816): (XPC complex subunit, DNA damage recognition and repair factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of the XPC complex, which plays an important role in the early steps of global genome nucleotide excision repair (NER). The encoded protein is important for damage sensing and DNA binding, and shows a preference for single-stranded DNA. Mutations in this gene or some other NER components can result in Xeroderma pigmentosum, a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by increased sensitivity to sunlight with the development of carcinomas at an early age. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Collection Method:clinical testing

The observed frameshift c.1103_1104del (p.Gln368ArgfsTer6) variant in XPC gene has been previously reported in both homozygous and compound heterozygous states in individuals affected with xeroderma pigmentosum (Chavanne et al., 2000; Khan et al., 2006). Experimental evidence suggests this variant to affect XPC function (Khan et al., 2006). The p.Gln368ArgfsTer6 variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glutamine 368, changes this amino acid to Arginine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 6 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gln368ArgfsTer6. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: XPC c.1103_1104delAA (p.Gln368ArgfsX6) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.5e-05 in 30946 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1103_1104delAA has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Xeroderma Pigmentosum (Chavanne 2000, Khan 2006, Schubert 2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. These publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrating strongly decreased mRNA levels, absence of the protein and deficient repair synthesis and/or cell survival after UV-irradiation. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 267279). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with xeroderma pigmentosum (PMID: 10766188). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln368Argfs*6) in the XPC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in XPC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23173980, 25256075). -
