This mutation has been previously reported as disease-causing and was found once in our laboratory in a homozygous state in a 13-year-old male with a clinical diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. Heterozygotes are expected to be asymptomatic carriers. -
This variant was classified based on the report of 1 patient with a clinically confirmed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in the context of re-classifying variants in the German Cystic Fibrosis Registry (Muko e.V.). Patients have not been seen personally, but only reports were evaluated. Criteria applied: PS3, PM2_SUP, PM3_VSTR, PM5_STR, PP3, PP4 -

The CFTR c.3909C>G (p.Asn1303Lys) missense variant is a well-known, widely reported pathogenic variant that accounts for approximately 1.3% of disease alleles, and is often associated with a classic cystic fibrosis (CF) phenotype (Ong et al. 2001). The Cystic Fibrosis Mutation Database (http://www.genet.sickkids.on.ca/cftr/Home.html) indicates that the p.Asn1303Lys variant is the fourth most common CFTR variant worldwide, and the Clinical and Functional Translation of CFTR (CFTR2) database (http://cftr2.org) reports the p.Asn1303Lys variant in over 2100 patients, noting that it is a cystic fibrosis-causing variant. Across a selection of the available literature, the p.Asn1303Lys variant has also been reported in five patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), including three compound heterozygotes and two heterozygotes in whom a second variant was not identified (Steiner et al. 2011; Tomaiuolo et al. 2011), and in four patients with chronic pancreatitis, including three compound heterozygotes and one heterozygote (Steiner et al. 2011; Hamoir et al. 2013). The p.Asn1303Lys variant is reported at a frequency of 0.00035 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project. Based on the collective evidence, the p.Asn1303Lys variant is classified as pathogenic for CFTR-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1303 of the CFTR protein (p.Asn1303Lys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with CFTR-related disorders, including cystic fibrosis, congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens, and chronic pancreatitis (PMID: 1380943, 12767731, 15371902, 21520337, 22658665, 23951356, 23974870). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7136). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CFTR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CFTR function (PMID: 23891399, 23974870, 25799511). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.N1303K pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3909C>G), located in coding exon 24 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 3909. The asparagine at codon 1303 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, this mutation was identified in 216 cystic fibrosis alleles, including 10 homozygous individuals with elevated sweat chloride levels and decreased lung function. Of the 6 homozygous individuals with reported pancreatic status, all were pancreatic insufficient (Osborne L et al. Hum. Genet., 1992 Aug;89:653-8). In vitro functional studies determined that this mutation prevents the maturation, trafficking, and subsequent activity of the CFTR protein (Gregory RJ et al. Mol. Cell. Biol., 1991 Aug;11:3886-93). This pathogenic mutation is associated with elevated sweat chloride levels, decreased lung function, and pancreatic insufficiency; in vitro functional studies showed this mutation results in significantly reduced chloride conductance (Sosnay PR et al. Nat. Genet., 2013 Oct;45:1160-7). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00018 (23/128054 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in the homozygous state and with other CF variants in trans to be particularly associated with a pancreatic insufficient phenotype, however, variable lung function phenotypes from unusually mild to severe have been observed (PMID: 1380943 (1992), 23974870 (2013), and 26208274 (2015)). Functional analysis has described this variant as Class II causing defective protein processing, protein degradation, insignificant levels of mature CFTR, and conductance (PMID: 1712898 (1991), 23891399 (2014), 25799511 (2015), 26823392 (2016)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The N1303K variant in the CFTR gene has been reported previously as a CF-causing variant in patients with abnormal sweat chloride levels, pancreatic insufficiency, and mild to moderate lung disease (Sosnay et al., 2013; Osborne et al, 1991). The N1303K variant was not observed at any significant frequency in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The N1303K variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position within the ABC transporter 2 domain that is conserved across species. Cell lines expressing the N1303K CFTR variant show loss of baseline chloride transport compared to those expressing wild type protein (Van Goor et al., 2014). A missense variant at the same residue, N1303H, was reported in a patient with severe pulmonary disease and pancreatic insufficiency (Claustres et al., 1992). We interpret N1303K as a pathogenic variant. -

The CFTR c.3909C>G; p.Asn1303Lys variant (rs80034486), is reported in the literature in multiple individuals diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, often associated with pancreatic insufficiency (Osborne 1991, Osborne 1992, Ooi 2012, Sosnay 2013, CFTR2 database). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 7136), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.014% (34/244424 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The asparagine at codon 1303 is highly conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.83). Functional characterization of the variant protein indicates a defect in CFTR processing, resulting in a severe reduction in chloride transport activity (Sosnay 2013, Van Goor 2014). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: CFTR2 database: http://cftr2.org Ooi C. et al.

The CFTR c.3909C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn1303Lys. This variant has been reported to be causative for cystic fibrosis (Sosnay et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23974870; Masson et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23951356; Osborne et al. 1991. PubMed ID: 1998343; Watson et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15371902).
