Care suffered strained ligaments after turning his ankle during training on Tuesday and was finally ruled out on Thursday morning.
Ellis, who was initially promoted from the Saxons squad as injury cover, will now go straight into England's starting team, with Northampton's Ben Foden remaining on the bench.
London Irish scrum-half Paul Hodgson will take Ellis' place in the Saxons team to play Ireland A at Donnybrook on Friday night.
England manager Martin Johnson said: "On behalf of the squad we all feel for Danny and wish him a speedy recovery. Harry is an experienced international and I'm sure he will do a good job for us on Saturday."
