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: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.018005852 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.6, offset of 24, new splice context is: taaGTatgt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 7-117606754-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-117606754-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 632766.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: The CFTR c.2988+1G>T variant (also known as 3120+1G>T) involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide and 4/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant is absent in 276728 control chromosomes (gnomAD). Even though this variant has been reported in multiple affected CF pts across ethnicities (Watson_2004 and Palomaki_2004), the exact nature of nucleotide change in those reports is suspicious. To our knowledge, the variant of interest has not been cited by reputable databases and/or clinical diagnostic laboratories. Although, another variant at this position, c.2988+1G>A, has been highly reported as a common pathogenic mutation. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic.

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 18 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 15371902, 23974870). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 632766). 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.
