Genes affected

CFTR (HGNC:1884): (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) This gene encodes a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. The encoded protein functions as a chloride channel, making it unique among members of this protein family, and controls ion and water secretion and absorption in epithelial tissues. Channel activation is mediated by cycles of regulatory domain phosphorylation, ATP-binding by the nucleotide-binding domains, and ATP hydrolysis. Mutations in this gene cause cystic fibrosis, the most common lethal genetic disorder in populations of Northern European descent. The most frequently occurring mutation in cystic fibrosis, DeltaF508, results in impaired folding and trafficking of the encoded protein. Multiple pseudogenes have been identified in the human genome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Variant summary: CFTR c.721G>A (p.Gly241Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251394 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.721G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (e.g., Claustres_2000, LeMarechal_2001, Sasihuiseyinoglu_2019). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (e.g., Wehbi_2007). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11504857, 10923036, 11379874, 31990467, 17516627). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

The CFTR c.721G>A; p.Gly241Arg variant (rs397508789, ClinVar variation ID: 54047) is reported in the literature in cystic fibrosis cohorts, however specifics were not provided (Le Marechal 2001, Claustres 2000) and in two infants with recurrent pneumonia suspected of cystic fibrosis who each had a second variant but the phase of the variants is unknown (Sasihuseyinoglu 2019). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.801). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.
