This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg785*) 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 (rs374946172, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 16189704, 17662673, 18467194, 26436105, 29504914). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as 2485C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53480). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: The CFTR c.2353C>T (p.Arg785X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent CFTR 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 (e.g. p.Glu831X, p.Arg851X, p.Trp1089X). This variant was found in 1/114550 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000087, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CFTR variant (0.0129603). The variant was reported in numerous CF patients in the literature and multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
The p.R785* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2353C>T), located in coding exon 14 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2353. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 14. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other CFTR variant(s) in individual(s) with features consistent with cystic fibrosis (McGinniss MJ et al. Hum. Genet., 2005 Dec;118:331-8; Alibakhshi R et al. J. Cyst. Fibros., 2008 Mar;7:102-9; Frenescu L et al. J. Cyst. Fibros., 2008 Sep;7:423-8; Fredj SH et al. Genet Test Mol Biomarkers, 2009 Oct;13:577-81). 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. -
