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]

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

The missense c.706T>C p.Cys236Arg variant in ERCC4 gene has been reported in compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with ERCC4 associated disorders / Xeroderma pigmentosum, type F / Cockayne syndrome Kashiyama et. al., 2013; M. Poot et. al., 2014; Mariangelaet. al., 2018. Experimental studies have shown damaging effect of this variant on ERCC4 gene function Kashiyama et. al., 2013. The p.Cys236Arg variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Significance / Pathogenic. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen - Probably damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid at this position on ERCC4 gene is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Cys at position 236 is changed to a Arg changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Based on the above the fetus is likely to be of the detected variant. This same variant was previously detected in homozygous state in affected sibling. -
