Genes affected

XPC (HGNC:12816): (XPC complex subunit, DNA damage recognition and repair factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of the XPC complex, which plays an important role in the early steps of global genome nucleotide excision repair (NER). The encoded protein is important for damage sensing and DNA binding, and shows a preference for single-stranded DNA. Mutations in this gene or some other NER components can result in Xeroderma pigmentosum, a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by increased sensitivity to sunlight with the development of carcinomas at an early age. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 08, 2024	This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 12 of the XPC 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 (rs754673606, gnomAD 0.02%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with xeroderma pigmentosum (PMID: 21482201). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190213). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in abnormal splicing, including skipping of exon 13, retention of intron 12, and/or a deletion of 44 nucleotides in exon 13 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 21482201). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jul 11, 2017	Variant summary: The XPC c.2251-1G>C variant involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing. Functional studies proved the exon skipping and the absence of the XPC protein associated with impaired DNA synthesis in XP patients cultured fibroblasts (Cartault_DNA_Repair_2011, Fassihi_PNAS_2016). This variant was found in 2/120678 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000166, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic XPC variant (0.0014142). This variant is reported in multiple homozygous XP patients (Cartault_DNA_Repair_2011, Fassihi_PNAS_2016). In addition, one clinical diagnostic laboratory classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Dec 21, 2023

The XPC c.2251-1G>C variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in individuals with xeroderma pigmentosum (see for example, Santiago et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32239545; Fassihi et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26884178; reported as IVS 12-1G>C in Cartault et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21482201). This variant is reported in 0.025% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in XPC are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
