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]

The p.S466* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1397C>G), located in coding exon 11 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1397. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 11. This mutation was described in two unrelated German individuals with pancreatic insufficient cystic fibrosis (CF) in conjunction with p.F508del (Deufel A et al. Hum. Mutat., 1994;3:64-6). This mutation was also detected in the homozygous state in four unrelated Iranian individuals with CF (Alibakhshi R et al. J. Cyst. Fibros., 2008 Mar;7:102-9). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser466*) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908805, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis. While this variant is commonly found in cis with p.Arg1070Gln, it has also been observed without p.Arg1070Gln in affected individuals and is expected to be causative for CFTR-related conditions whether p.Arg1070Gln is present or not (PMID: 7509683, 16436643, 17662673, 21198395, 23974870, 24106596, 24586523, 24696795, 25910067). This variant is also known as 1529C>G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35822). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The c.1397C>G (p.Ser466X) variant in CFTR has been reported in at least 14 individuals with cystic fibrosis, and was found in the heterozygous state with the CFTR p.Phe508del variant in at least 3 cases (Deufel 1994 PMID: 7509683, Sahami 2014 PMID: 24696795, Petrova 2020 PMID: 32429104, Claustres 2017 PMID: 28603918). It has also been identified in 0.0072% (3/41412) of African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive allele frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 35822). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 466, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the CFTR gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive cystic fibrosis. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive cystic fibrosis. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3_Strong, PM2_Supporting.

Variant summary: CFTR c.1397C>G (p.Ser466X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (c.1477C>T, p.Gln493X; c.1573C>T, p.Gln525X; c.1624G>T, p.Gly542X). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.8e-05 in 276952 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This variant has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (Deufel_1994, Sosnay_2013, Sahami_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

The CFTR c.1397C>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Ser466*). This variant has been reported to be causative for cystic fibrosis in the presence of a second pathogenic variant (see example: Table S2, Sosnay et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23974870; Petrova et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32429104; Chernykh et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 38003474). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in CFTR are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
