Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Feb 29, 2024 | The c.3468G>T variant (also known as p.L1156F), located in coding exon 21 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 3468. The amino acid change results in leucine to phenylalanine at codon 1156, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 21, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in multiple Japanese individuals with idiopathic, familial, hereditary, and alcoholic pancreatitis, including one individual with alcoholic pancreatitis who was homozygous for this alteration (Nakano E, Dig. Dis. Sci. 2015 May; 60(5):1297-307; Kondo S, Am. J. Physiol. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 2015 Aug; 309(4):G260-9). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species, and this amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. In addition, as a missense substitution, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Dec 19, 2022 | Variant summary: CFTR c.3468G>T (p.Leu1156Phe) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide located in the last position of exon 21. 3/4 splice prediction tools predict a slight weakening of a canonical 5' splice donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. In the absence of splice change the variant would result in a non-conservative amino acid change that is located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251130 control chromosomes, predominantly within the East Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0016 in the gnomAD database. This frequency is lower than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing CFTR-related diseases (0.0016 vs. 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant has been reported in two publications to be statistically associated with idiopathic and alcoholic chronic pancreatitis in Japanese patients (example, Kondo 2015, Nakano 2015, Iso_2019), however the sample size in these case-control studies was small and the authors did not adjust for the effect of other likely pathogenic or pathogenic CFTR, SPINK1, and CTRC variants that were found in co-occurrence in several patients in these cohorts. Another study reports this variant as a non-informative genotype (second allele or zygosity not specified) in at-least two Chinese individuals, one with CAVD and another with oligoasthenospermia (example, Li_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with CFTR-Related Diseases. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, showing that CFTR expression, Cl- current, HCO3- and Cl- transport was not different from wild-type in cells expressing the variant of interest, however, Cl-/HCO3- exchange activity was reduced to 30% of the wild-type levels and two patients had higher than normal sweat chloride levels (Kondo 2015). The variant of interest in combination with a benign polymorphism (V470M) had reduced CFTR expression (to 60-70%), CFTR-mediated HCO3-/Cl- transport (to 50-60%) and the Cl-/HCO3-exchange activity (to 2030%) compared to wild-type (Kondo 2015). Five other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as likely benign (n=1), VUS (n=4). Based on all these conflicting evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as a VUS, until more definitive functional and clinical studies become available. - |

CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Apr 27, 2017 | 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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. - |
