Summary

ERCC2 (ERCC excision repair 2, TFIIH core complex helicase subunit, HGNC:3434) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.32, encoding General transcription and DNA repair factor IIH helicase subunit XPD (P18074). ATP-dependent 5’-3’ DNA helicase. In precision oncology, ERCC2 K751Q confers sensitivity to Paclitaxel + Carboplatin in Lung Non-small Cell Carcinoma (CIViC Level B); 1 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 94.8% of cancer cell lines).

The nucleotide excision repair pathway is a mechanism to repair damage to DNA. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair and is an integral member of the basal transcription factor BTF2/TFIIH complex. The gene product has ATP-dependent DNA helicase activity and belongs to the RAD3/XPD subfamily of helicases. Defects in this gene can result in three different disorders, the cancer-prone syndrome xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D, trichothiodystrophy, and Cockayne syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. ATP-dependent 5’-3’ DNA helicase. Component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH) core complex, not absolutely essential for minimal transcription in vitro. Required for transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER) of damaged DNA; recognizes damaged bases. Sequestered in chromatin on UV-damaged DNA. When complexed to CDK-activating kinase (CAK), involved in transcription by RNA polymerase II. In NER, TFIIH acts by opening DNA around the lesion to allow the excision of the damaged oligonucleotide and its replacement by a new DNA fragment. The ATP-dependent helicase activity of XPD/ERCC2 is required for DNA opening. Involved in DNA lesion verification. In transcription, TFIIH has an essential role in transcription initiation. When the pre-initiation complex (PIC) has been established, TFIIH is required for promoter opening and promoter escape. Phosphorylation of the C-terminal tail (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II by the kinase module CAK controls the initiation of transcription. XPD/ERCC2 acts by forming a bridge between CAK and the core-TFIIH complex. The structure of the TFIIH transcription complex differs from the NER-TFIIH complex; large movements by XPD/ERCC2 and XPB/ERCC3 are stabilized by XPA which allow this subunit to contact ssDNA. Involved in the regulation of vitamin-D receptor activity. As part of the mitotic spindle-associated MMXD complex it plays a role in chromosome segregation. Might have a role in aging process and could play a causative role in the generation of skin cancers.

Subunit / interactions. Component of the 7-subunit TFIIH core complex composed of XPB/ERCC3, XPD/ERCC2, GTF2H1, GTF2H2, GTF2H3, GTF2H4 and GTF2H5, which is active in NER. The core complex associates with the 3-subunit CDK-activating kinase (CAK) module composed of CCNH/cyclin H, CDK7 and MNAT1 to form the 10-subunit holoenzyme (holo-TFIIH) active in transcription. Interacts with GTF2H2 (p44) which stimulates the 5’-3’ helicase activity of this subunit. Component of the MMXD complex, which includes CIAO1, ERCC2, CIAO2B, MMS19 and SLC25A5. Interacts with CIAO1 and CIAO2B; the interaction WITH CIAO2B is direct. Interacts with ATF7IP. Interacts directly with MMS19. Part of TBP-based Pol II pre-initiation complex (PIC), in which Pol II core assembles with general transcription factors and other specific initiation factors including GTF2E1, GTF2E2, GTF2F1, GTF2F2, TCEA1, ERCC2, ERCC3, GTF2H2, GTF2H3, GTF2H4, GTF2H5, GTF2A1, GTF2A2, GTF2B and TBP; this large multi-subunit PIC complex mediates DNA unwinding and targets Pol II core to the transcription start site where the first phosphodiester bond forms. (Microbial infection) Interacts with Epstein-Barr virus EBNA2.

Disease relevance. Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D (XP-D) [MIM:278730] An autosomal recessive pigmentary skin disorder characterized by solar hypersensitivity of the skin, high predisposition for developing cancers on areas exposed to sunlight and, in some cases, neurological abnormalities. The skin develops marked freckling and other pigmentation abnormalities. Some XP-D patients present features of Cockayne syndrome, including cachectic dwarfism, pigmentary retinopathy, ataxia, decreased nerve conduction velocities. The phenotype combining xeroderma pigmentosum and Cockayne syndrome traits is referred to as XP-CS complex. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Trichothiodystrophy 1, photosensitive (TTD1) [MIM:601675] A form of trichothiodystrophy, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by sulfur-deficient brittle hair and multisystem variable abnormalities. The spectrum of clinical features varies from mild disease with only hair involvement to severe disease with cutaneous, neurologic and profound developmental defects. Ichthyosis, intellectual and developmental disabilities, decreased fertility, abnormal characteristics at birth, ocular abnormalities, short stature, and infections are common manifestations. There are both photosensitive and non-photosensitive forms of the disorder. TTD1 patients manifest cutaneous photosensitivity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal syndrome 2 (COFS2) [MIM:610756] A disorder of prenatal onset characterized by microcephaly, congenital cataracts, facial dysmorphism, neurogenic arthrogryposis, growth failure and severe psychomotor retardation. COFS is considered to be part of the nucleotide-excision repair disorders spectrum that include also xeroderma pigmentosum, trichothiodystrophy and Cockayne syndrome. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Activity regulation. Interaction with GTF2H2 (p44) results in stimulation of the 5’-3’ helicase activity of this subunit. DNA unwinding by this subunit in TFIIH is stimulated 4-fold by XPA and 20-fold by ERCC5/XPG.

Cofactor. Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster.

Domain organisation. Interacts with GTF2H2/p44 via the C-terminus of this protein; mutations in the C-terminal region of XPD do not alter its helicase activity, but prevent its interaction with and helicase stimulation by GTF2H2/p44.

Similarity. Belongs to the helicase family. RAD3/XPD subfamily.

Disease & clinical

Cancer significance

From CIViC — curated cancer-variant interpretation:

ERCC2 functions as a DNA repair gene involved in separating the double helix via 5’-3’ helicase activity. It forms a part of the transcription factor II Human (TFIIH) complex and is ATP-dependent. The TFIIH complex is known to be involved in the nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER) which can repair DNA damage caused by chemotherapeutic treatment and basal transcription. ERCC2 variants have been observed in a variety of cancers. A number of studies have suggested ERCC2 variants can act as biomarkers to predict response to neoadjuvant treatment, and cancer prognosis. Additionally the Lys751Gln polymorphism has been observed to increase risk in a number of cancer types; however, results have been conflicting.

From intOGen — cancer-driver classification: activating (oncogene-like) across 1 cancer types — BLCA.
