Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 3P and 5B. PM1PP2BP4_StrongBS2_Supporting

The NM_000492.4(CFTR):​c.2735C>T​(p.Ser912Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000594 in 1,613,968 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S912W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 22 uncertain in NM_000492.4
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 197 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 46 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -3.1397 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -1.0868 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hereditary chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.017515898).
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 3 AD,AR geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Variant summary: The CFTR c.2735C>T (p.Ser912Leu) variant involves the alteration of a not conserved nucleotide. 3/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 279/304800 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in gnomAD at a frequency of 0.017041 (173/10152). This frequency is about 1.3 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CFTR variant (0.0129603), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of Ashkenazi Jewish origin. However, it needs to be noted that this observation needs to take into account the nature of this population having lower genetic heterogeneity. This variant has been reported in multiple affected individuals; however, many of the reported cases also carried p.G1244V in cis or in cis with another potentially pathogenic variant. Functional data shows that the variant of interest, alone, acts comparable to wild type function, however, in cis with another potentially pathogenic variant such as G1244V (shown to have pathogenic properties, in isolation) drastically affects functionality (Clain_2005). In addition, an asymptomatic male was compound heterozygous (in trans) for this variant and a pathogenic (p.R709X) was reported (Clain_2005), supporting for benign outcome. Furthermore, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases and publications (Clain_2005 and Zietkiewicz_2014) cite the variant of interest in isolation as Benign. Therefore, taken all together, variant of interest in isolation is classified as benign, however, one must take into consideration when the variant of interest is in a complex allele with another potentially pathogenic CFTR variant (in cis), the variant of interest may act as a modifier of pathogenicity.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.
