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: The c.689+3A>C variant in CFTR gene is an intronic change that alters a conserved nucleotide. 5/5 in silico tools via Alamut predict this variant to affect a normal splicing pattern, however, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by in vitro/in vivo functional studies. Another variant at this position, c.689+3A>T, that was identified in CF pt and pt, presented with hypochloraemic alkalosis, displayed similar in silico pattern and was shown to lead to alternative splicing and complete skipping of exon 7. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in the affected individuals, nor has it been cited by reputable clinical laboratories/diagnostic centers, however was identified in one affected individual in whom presence of F508del was also confirmed. The variant is absent from the large control population dataset of ExAC (0/~114434 chromosomes). Taken together, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic and reported by Integrated Genetics as "likely clinically significant" until new information becomes available. -
