Cystic fibrosis Uncertain:3Other:1
The p.S158T variant (also known as c.473G>C), located in coding exon 4 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 473. The serine at codon 158 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in a 4 month old child with a positive newborn screen and three intermediate sweat chloride results; a second CFTR alteration was not detected (McGinniss MJ et al. Hum Genet. 2005;118(3-4):331-338). This alteration was also identified in multiple individuals diagnosed with pancreatitis (Sofia VM et al. Mol Med, 2016 Sep;22:300-309; Xiao Y et al. J Pediatr, 2017 Dec;191:158-163.e3). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 158 of the CFTR protein (p.Ser158Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs397508725, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cystic fibrosis and pancreatitis (PMID: 16189704, 26436105, 27264265, 27449771, 29173301). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53959). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant disrupts the p.Ser158 amino acid residue in CFTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 30760291; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:2
The CFTR c.473G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser158Thr. This variant was reported in patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer, although pathogenicity was not established in any of these cases (McGinniss et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16189704; Yang et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27449771; Xiao et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29173301). This variant is reported in 0.0058% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-117171152-G-C). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

not provided Uncertain:2
The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000027 (3/112322 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in a cohort of individual with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) or CF-related conditions (PMID: 26436105 (2015)), an individual with atypical CF (PMID: 16189704 (2005)), an individual with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 27449771 (2016)), and individuals with chronic pancreatitis (PMIDs: 27264265 (2016) and 29173301 (2017)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: CFTR c.473G>C (p.Ser158Thr) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 249072 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.473G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with atypical cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, or pancreatic cancer (e.g. McGinniss_2005, Xiao_2017, Yang_2016, Trujillano_2015, Sofia_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Chronic Pancreatitis Risk. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (SPINK1 c.194+2T>C, pancreatic cancer; CDKN2A unspecified variant, pancreatic cancer; Yang_2016, Xiao_2017), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16189704, 17890437, 27264265, 26436105, 29173301, 27449771). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53959). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
