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]

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 851 of the ERCC6 protein (p.Trp851Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with ataxia-related phenotypes and/or Cockayne syndrome (PMID: 9443879, 29572252, 29915382, 32557569). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 210955). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ERCC6 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ERCC6 function (PMID: 9443879, 20122405, 25820262, 29203878). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ERCC6 c.2551T>C (p.Trp851Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Helicase, C-terminal domain (IPR001650) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251280 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2551T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cockayne Syndrome or Cerebellar ataxia (Mallery_1998, Calmels_2018, Sun_2018). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Functional studies report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and this variant results in impaired in its ability to associate with chromatin in response to UV irradiation, failed to suppress the increase in 53BP1 and Rif1 damage foci formation in CSB-knockout cells and failed to recruit BRCA1 (Mallery_1998, Lake_2010, Batenburg_2015, Batenburg_2019). Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance (n=1), likely pathogenic (n=1) and pathogenic (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
