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]

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

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg975*) in the ERCC6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ERCC6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18628313, 29572252). This variant is present in population databases (rs772801089, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Cockayne syndrome (PMID: 28440418, 29572252; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435082). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
