Genes affected
ERCC4 (HGNC:3436): (ERCC excision repair 4, endonuclease catalytic subunit) The protein encoded by this gene forms a complex with ERCC1 and is involved in the 5' incision made during nucleotide excision repair. This complex is a structure specific DNA repair endonuclease that interacts with EME1. Defects in this gene are a cause of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group F (XP-F), or xeroderma pigmentosum VI (XP6).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

This sequence change replaces arginine with serine at codon 689 of the ERCC4 protein (p.Arg689Ser). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and serine. This variant is present in population databases (rs149364215, ExAC 0.003%). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 23623386). In this individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55824). This variant has been reported to affect ERCC4 protein function (PMID: 23623386, 30165384, 28292785, 30658521). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ERCC4 c.2065C>A (p.Arg689Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ERCC4 domain (IPR006166) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251434 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2065C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Fanconi anaemia in the homozygous state and in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic variant (Boliolo_2013, Ghemlas_2015). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant results in a severe loss of nuclease and interstrand cross-link repair activity (Boliolo_2013, Osorio_2013). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23623386, 26136524, 24027083). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55824). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
