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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 15 of the ERCC6 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs373227647, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Cockayne syndrome (PMID: 19894250, 24154677). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190163). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 16 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 19894250). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2830-2A>G pathogenic variant in the ERCC6 gene has been reported previously in two unrelated individuals with congenital Cockayne syndrome (Frouin et al., 2013; Laugel et al., 2010). This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 15. It is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, either leading to an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, or to an abnormal protein product if the message is used for protein translation. The c.2830-2A>G variant was not observed in the homozgyous state or at any significant frequency in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. We interpret c.2830-2A>G as a pathogenic variant. -
