Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic autosomal recessive disease. The primary manifestations of which are developmental delay, neurological impairment, abnormal skin sensitivity to sunlight and unique facial appearance as sunken eyes, large ears, and thin large nose. The disorders of the nucleotide excision repair system significantly are caused by mutations of Excision repair cross-complementing group 6 (ERCC6) and Excision repair cross-complementing group 8 (ERCC8) genes, and the ERCC6 gene mutations are present in approximately 65% of cases. CASE PRESENTATION Here we described a girl in a consanguineous Jordanian family with abnormal facial appearance and postnatal growth delay. She was not able to gain weight. Her condition deteriorated progressively and she developed difficulty of swallowing even to water. The patient was diagnosed as CS based on her facial appearance and neurologic dysfunction. The patient was examined at 3 years old, and died at 4 years old. CONCLUSION Genetic analysis and sequencing revealed homozygosity for a novel frame shift mutation c.2911_2915del5ins9 (p.Lys971TryfsX14) in the ERCC6. The mutation is predicted to delete 5 nucleotides and add 9 nucleotides with a premature termination, resulting in approximately 34% length reduction of the wild-type transcript. The multisystem malformations of CS are clinically heterogeneous. The frame shift mutation of ERCC6 found in this patient is a novel one, which caused postnatal growth failure and early death. Our findings indicate truncated mutation in CS lead to more severe CS phenotype and add to the genotype-phenotype correlations in CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficient nucleotide excision repair (NER) activity causes a variety of autosomal recessive diseases including xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) a disorder which pre-disposes to skin cancer, and the severe multisystem condition known as Cockayne syndrome (CS). In view of the clinical overlap between NER-related disorders, as well as the existence of multiple phenotypes and the numerous genes involved, we developed a new diagnostic approach based on the enrichment of 16 NER-related genes by multiplex amplification coupled with next-generation sequencing (NGS). METHODS Our test cohort consisted of 11 DNA samples, all with known mutations and/or non pathogenic SNPs in two of the tested genes. We then used the same technique to analyse samples from a prospective cohort of 40 patients. Multiplex amplification and sequencing were performed using AmpliSeq protocol on the Ion Torrent PGM (Life Technologies). RESULTS We identified causative mutations in 17 out of the 40 patients (43%). Four patients showed biallelic mutations in the ERCC6(CSB) gene, five in the ERCC8(CSA) gene: most of them had classical CS features but some had very mild and incomplete phenotypes. A small cohort of 4 unrelated classic XP patients from the Basque country (Northern Spain) revealed a common splicing mutation in POLH (XP-variant), demonstrating a new founder effect in this population. Interestingly, our results also found ERCC2(XPD), ERCC3(XPB) or ERCC5(XPG) mutations in two cases of UV-sensitive syndrome and in two cases with mixed XP/CS phenotypes. CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms that NGS is an efficient technique for the analysis of NER-related disorders on a molecular level. It is particularly useful for phenotypes with combined features or unusually mild symptoms. Targeted NGS used in conjunction with DNA repair functional tests and precise clinical evaluation permits rapid and cost-effective diagnosis in patients with NER-defects.
