A317750 a(n) is the least nonnegative integer, not yet present in the sequence, such that sums of some of the terms up to a(n) produce exactly n distinct primes. 0

Collected primes from a(1) on: 2, 3, 5, 7, 53, 157, 1811, 9949, 303283, 49730477, ...
If we drop the unicity constraint, then we obtain: 0, 2, followed by the prime gaps (A001223). - Rémy Sigrist, Aug 07 2018

EXAMPLE
a(0) = 0, no prime.
a(1) = 2, one prime: 2.
a(2) = 1, two primes: 2 and 1 + 2 = 3.
a(3) = 3, three primes: 2, 3 and 3 + 2 = 5.
a(4) = 4, four primes: 2, 3, 3 + 2 = 4 + 1 = 5 and 4 + 3 = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7.
Next term is a(5) = 48 because any integer from 5 to 47 generates more than 5 primes. For instance, 33 gives 33 + 4 = 37 and 33 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 41 that with 2, 3, 5 and 7 sum to 6 primes.
