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.1585-1G>A variant affects a conserved intronic nucleotide. One in-silico tool predicts damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice-tools in Alamut predict that this variant affects the 3' splicing acceptor site and may generate an alternative 3' splicing acceptor site leading to c.1717delG. These predictions were confirmed by minigene and in vivo RNA analysis (Sosnay_2013). This variant is found in 11/120496 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000913, which does not exceed maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0129603). This variant is a commonly known pathogenic variant, and multiple clinical laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This variant has also been reported in the literature as c.1717-1G>A. This variant affects the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 10 and is therefore predicted to interfere with splicing and result in loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). This variant has been previously reported as a common pathogenic variant in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) (PMID: 2236053, 23974870, 20301428). Functional studies have demonstrated that this variant results in aberrant transcription of the CFTR gene (PMID: 25066652). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0071% (20/282220) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, the c.1585-1G>A variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The CFTR c.1585-1G>A variant, also known as c.1717-1G>A, occurs in a canonical splice site (acceptor) and is therefore predicted to disrupt or distort the normal gene product. The c.1585-1G>A variant is listed by the ACMG as part of a panel recommended for routine diagnostic and carrier testing for cystic fibrosis (Watson et al. 2004). The c.1585-1G>A variant is one of the ten most common CFTR variants in persons of northern European descent, accounting for 0.6% of disease and is associated with a classic cystic fibrosis phenotype (Moskowitz et al. 2001). The variant is found in 635/79392 disease-associated alleles in individuals from North America and Europe (Sosnay et al. (2013). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.001395 in the European American cohort of the Exome Sequencing Project. Based on the collective evidence the c.1585-1G>A variant classified as pathogenic for cystic fibrosis. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

The c.1585-1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation (also known as 1717-1G>A) results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 12 of the CFTR gene. This pathogenic mutation is associated with elevated sweat chloride levels, pancreatic insufficiency, and higher rate of Pseudomonas infection (Sosnay PR et al. Nat. Genet., 2013 Oct;45:1160-7). A functional in vitro study reported an absence of normally spliced RNA in expression minigenes transfected into HEK293 cells (Sharma N et al. Hum. Mutat., 2014 Oct;35:1249-59). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 11 of the CFTR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is present in population databases (rs76713772, gnomAD 0.02%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with cystic fibrosis, and is included in the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) panel of CF variants (PMID: 15371902, 23974870). This variant is also known as 1717-1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7112). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The CFTR c.1585-1G>A (also known as 1717-1G>A) variant disrupts a canonical splice-acceptor site and interferes with normal CFTR mRNA splicing. This variant is associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) (PMIDs: 29261177 (2018), 31036917 (2019), and 34782259 (2021)), and has been reported along with other pathogenic CFTR variants in individuals with classic CF (PMID: 7689009 (1993)), pancreatic insufficiency (PMIDs: 2236053 (1990), 2210769 (1990), 1757966 (1991), and 23974870 (2013)) and in at least one individual with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (PMID: 34996830 (2022)). Experimental studies have also shown that this variant results in exon 12 skipping and therefore disrupts protein production (PMIDs: 7689009 (1993), 23974870 (2013) and 25066652 (2014)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0002 (10/50648 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The CFTR c.1585-1G>A variant (rs76713772), also known as 1717-1G>A, has been reported in patients with the pancreatic insufficient form of cystic fibrosis (Guillermit 1990, Kerem 1990, Ivady 2011, Sosnay 2013). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 7112), is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.015% (19/128,796 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant disrupts the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 11, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

The c.1585-1G>A pathogenic variant in the CFTR gene is one of the common pathogenic variants associated with cystic fibrosis (Kerem et al., 1990; Hull et al., 1993; Ooi et al., 2012). This splice site variant destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 11. Functional studies show this variant results in skipping of exon 12 with a frameshift that results in a premature termination codon, and the mRNA is not able to generate a stable protein product (Hull et al., 1993; Sharma et al., 2014). Although not present in the homozygous state, the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project reports that c.1585-1G>A was observed in 12/8600 alleles (0.14%) from individuals of European American background, indicating it may be a rare variant in this population. We interpret c.1585-1G>A as a pathogenic variant. -

The CFTR c.1585-1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant, previously described as c.1717-1G>A, is known to be causative for cystic fibrosis (see for example Kerem et al. 1990. PubMed ID: 2236053; Sosnay et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23974870). This variant is reported in 0.015% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-117227792-G-A). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in CFTR are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
