The p.Arg735Ter variant has been reported in at least three studies in which it is found in a total of five patients, including one homozygote and two compound heterozygotes with Cockayne syndrome, and two homozygotes with de Sanctis-Cacchione syndrome (Mallery et al. 1998; Colella et al. 2000; Laugel et al. 2010). Control data are unavailable for this variant which is reported at a frequency of 0.00015 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Functional studies using primary fibroblast cell lines derived from patients with the p.Arg735Ter variant showed that the variant was associated with defective telomere maintenance as well as increased reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial oxidative stress but was not associated with nuclear DNA damage (Batenburg et al. 2012; Cleaver et al. 2014). Functional studies of induced pluripotent stem cells derived from skin fibroblasts carrying the p.Arg735Ter variant also showed that the lack of functional CSB protein caused by the variant did not prevent genetic reprogramming but did increase cell death and reactive oxygen species production (Andrade et al. 2012). Further, in a telomerase-immortalized cell line carrying the p.Arg375Ter variant in a homozygous state, addition of wild type CSB showed a significant decrease in the amount of cells with IR-induced 53BP1 foci and a significantly increased amount of cells with cyclin A and IR-induced foci of BRCA1, RPA, and Rad51, suggesting there is defective homologous recombination-mediated double strand break repair (Batenburg et al. 2015). Based on the collective evidence and the potential impact of stop-gained variants, the p.Arg275Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for ERCC6-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

Invitae	RCV000521977	SCV000937297	pathogenic	not provided	2024-01-11	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg735*) 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 (rs121917901, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Cockayne syndrome (PMID: 9443879). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1701). 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.
