Genes affected
ERCC3 (HGNC:3435): (ERCC excision repair 3, TFIIH core complex helicase subunit) This gene encodes an ATP-dependent DNA helicase that functions in nucleotide excision repair. The encoded protein is a subunit of basal transcription factor 2 (TFIIH) and, therefore, also functions in class II transcription. Mutations in this gene are associated with Xeroderma pigmentosum B, Cockayne's syndrome, and trichothiodystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp474Glufs*2) in the ERCC3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ERCC3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16947863). This variant is present in population databases (rs587778281, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with xeroderma pigmentosa (PMID: 16947863). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 134130). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The ERCC3 c.1421dupA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Asp474Glufs*2). This variant has been reported in an individual with xeroderma pigmentosum/Cockayne syndrome (Oh et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16947863). This variant has also been reported in multiple individuals with various cancers including colorectal, endometrial, melanoma, and leukemia (Table 2, Dobbins et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27356891; Table S1, Huang et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29625052; Table 2, Potjer et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30414346; Table S2, Kim et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34308104). This variant is reported in 0.014% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and it has been classified as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by other institutions in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/134130/). An in vitro experimental study suggests this variant affects DNA repair mechanisms (Figure 2, Oh et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16947863). Frameshift variants in ERCC3 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
