Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.1364C>T(p.Ala455Val) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000095 in 1,600,798 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A455E) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Cystic fibrosis Pathogenic:2Uncertain:3
The p.A455V variant (also known as c.1364C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1364. The alanine at codon 455 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been detected with a pathogenic CFTR mutation in an individual who was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis in adulthood (Nick JA et al. Am. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med., 2010 Sep;182:614-26). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 455 of the CFTR protein (p.Ala455Val). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CFTR-related conditions (PMID: 15371908, 20448091). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411125). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CFTR protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Ala455 amino acid residue in CFTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 23974870). 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. -

Variant summary: CFTR c.1364C>T (p.Ala455Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter-like domain (IPR003439) 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 5.7e-05 in 243858 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis (5.7e-05 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1364C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals undergoing carrier screening/clinical testing for Cystic Fibrosis (example, Buyse_2004, Strom_2003, Archibald_2018) and as a compound heterozygous genotype with another pathogenic CFTR variant in at-least one pancreatically sufficient individual in a cohort of CF patients over age 40 years (example, Nick_2010). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cystic Fibrosis. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.1364C>A, p.Ala455Glu), supporting the critical relevance of codon 455 to CFTR protein function. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect resulted in approximately (52.35)% of normal chloride channel conductance relative to wild type (e.g., Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29261177, 15371908, 20448091, 12544470, 37628659, 38388235). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411125). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:1
The CFTR c.1364C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala455Val. This variant has been reported in individuals undergoing CFTR testing (Buyse et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15371908; Archibald et al 2018. PubMed ID: 29261177); however, further evidence of pathogenicity was not provided. This variant, along with a nonsense CFTR variant, has also been reported in an individual diagnosed with cystic fibrosis in adulthood (Table E1, Nick JA et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20448091). An alternative missense variant at the same amino acid position (i.e. p.Ala455Glu) is an established pathogenic variant (Sosnay et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23974870). The c.1364C>T (p.Ala455Val) variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
