Genes affected

ERCC6 (HGNC:3438): (ERCC excision repair 6, chromatin remodeling factor) This gene encodes a DNA-binding protein that is important in transcription-coupled excision repair. The encoded protein has ATP-stimulated ATPase activity, interacts with several transcription and excision repair proteins, and may promote complex formation at DNA repair sites. Mutations in this gene are associated with Cockayne syndrome type B and cerebrooculofacioskeletal syndrome 1. Alternative splicing occurs between a splice site from exon 5 of this gene to the 3' splice site upstream of the open reading frame (ORF) of the adjacent gene, piggyback-derived-3 (GeneID:267004), which activates the alternative polyadenylation site downstream of the piggyback-derived-3 ORF. The resulting transcripts encode a fusion protein that shares sequence with the product of each individual gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

PGBD3 (HGNC:19400): (piggyBac transposable element derived 3) This gene is a member of a small family of genes derived from piggyBac transposable elements. The encoded protein contains a zinc-ribbon domain characteristic of transposon-derived proteins and may function as a regulator of transcription. Alternative splicing occurs between a splice site from exon 5 of the adjacent upstream gene 'excision repair cross-complementation group 6' (ERCC6, GeneID: 2074) and the 3' splice site upstream of the open reading frame (ORF) of this gene, which activates the alternative polyadenylation site downstream of the piggyback-derived-3 ORF. The resulting transcripts encode a fusion protein that shares sequence with the product of each individual gene. Pseudogenes for this gene are defined on chromosomes 4, 5 and 12.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu379*) in the ERCC6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ERCC6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18628313, 29572252). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555146). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Cockayne syndrome (PMID: 19894250). -
