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]
XPC-AS1 (HGNC:55014): (XPC antisense RNA 1)

not provided Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 02, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the XPC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in XPC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23173980, 25256075). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with xeroderma pigmentosum (PMID: 23984341; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554889). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
