Invitae | RCV001212995 | SCV001384608 | pathogenic | Xeroderma pigmentosum, group F; Cockayne syndrome; Fanconi anemia complementation group Q | 2019-08-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ERCC4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9580660). Experimental studies have shown that this variant disrupts mRNA splicing (PMID: 29325523). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Fanconi anemia and xeroderma pigmentosum (PMID: 29325523). In at least one individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the ERCC4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. |
